Mark Jensen has been working with wood for over 20 years. He started out in carpentry, moved into custom furniture, and somewhere along the way became the person his clients called whenever a wood decision felt too complicated to make alone. He knows how different species behave over time, how finishes interact with grain, and which “budget-friendly” options are actually worth it.
