Joshua Billups lives in Sandy, Oregon with his wife Ashley, and their 3-year old son. He grew up spending time in the shop with his father working on various woodworking and DIY projects while developing a passion for working with his hands. Josh began taking woodshop classes in Junior High and continued to do so all through High School. He entered the trades after high school and became proficient in masonry and carpentry.

 

In 2010 Josh deployed to Iraq with the Oregon Army National Guard.  Upon returning from his deployment, Josh returned to school and earned degrees in Multimedia Design and Video Production. He now follows his passion for helping and educating others about the wonders of woodworking.
