Meet Graeme.

 

The Story…

Graeme, Dr. Woodness, was born in the rugged beauty of the Canadian northwest, where a deep connection to nature took root early on. Growing up surrounded by forests, mountains, and wide-open skies left a lasting impression—one that continues to shape every build, project, and adventure.

Now living in Virginia, he's a devoted husband, father, and builder at heart. Whether he's planning his next cabin or out exploring the outdoors with his family, he's always chasing that perfect balance of craftsmanship and connection.

This Semi Professional Amateur isn’t just about building things—it's about building a life full of purpose. He’s passionate about inspiring others to pick up a tool, chase their ideas, and get after it.

The Semi Professional Amateur represents anyone who hasn’t perfected or even tried something. Yet failure they fear not. Having confidence in yourself when you probably shouldn’t. It’s probably the best attitude you can have when tackling projects you will probably mess up.
