About Dave

Dave Garry is a master craftsman whose passion for design and construction is matched only by his dedication to delivering exceptional results for his clients. With over two decades of experience building in the Jackson Hole area, Dave's expertise is not limited to construction alone—his formal training in furniture design and fine woodworking gives him a unique ability to bring an elevated sense of design to every project. He is not just a contractor; he is a creative partner, guiding clients through the construction process with thoughtful insights and an unmatched attention to detail.

Dave's journey in craftsmanship began at the prestigious School for American Crafts at Rochester Institute of Technology, where he earned his degree in furniture design and fine arts. Early in his career, he had the honor of working with renowned woodworker George Nakashima at his studio in Bucks County, Pennsylvania—a formative experience that shaped Dave's commitment to quality and artistry in his work.

When he's not on-site, Dave finds inspiration in the outdoors, constantly seeking new adventures off trail and drawing creativity from nature's limitless designs. Whether it’s exploring the outdoors or crafting custom homes, Dave's passion for the unique and the extraordinary shines through in everything he does.

At Splinter Woodworks, a family-owned and operated business, Dave is the master craftsman while his wife, Sarah, manages the day-to-day operations.
