TEENAGE CARPENTER PERSUING HIS PASSION
Hello, my name is Eric, and welcome to my Workchop! I'm a teenage woodworker who has a strong passion for working with my hands and building things based on my creativity. I constantly crave learning new things and improving my skills, and I'm grateful for any opportunity to do so.
Where it All Started...
I have been interested in building things since I was a young child, discovering Legos and spending countless hours building with them. My first true project I remember is the playground that my dad and I built in our backyard.
The Rediscovery
Growing up, I worked on the occasional project, but my attention was usually elsewhere.
​
In the summer of 2024, I found myself full of ambition, but with nothing to channel it into. That’s when my dad gave me a simple but powerful piece of advice:
​
“Don’t wait for the perfect opportunity—just start.”
So I did. I began with what matters most to me: my Faith. I transformed my garage into a creative space—my WorkChop—and rediscovered my passion for building, making, and exploring ideas with my own hands.
​
That spark grew into something more, and EricsWorkChop was born. Now, I create with purpose, driven by curiosity, craftsmanship, and a commitment to something greater than myself.
Built on Biblical Principles
Proverbs 3:5-10
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil. It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones. Honour the Lord with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: so shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.
