Shawn K.
Carpenter Apprentice
For about 2 years before starting at Gardner, I gained experience with steel framing, drywall and finish work. I originally learned about the trades from a friend and instantly became interested in working with my hands to build things, turning nothing into something. I find it extremely rewarding to see empty rooms turn into offices, living spaces, shopping centers, or restaurants.
I am originally from Seattle, Washington but moved to St.Paul when I was 14. In my spare time, time I enjoy spending time with my family. My 2 year old son and two dogs keep me busy 24/7. I also enjoy playing sports with my family and friends.
Favorite Tool:

I have 8 siblings – 2 sisters and 6 brothers.
