My name is Chris. I was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona, with a brief hiatus to Texas to go to college, play baseball, and explore a few jobs. I had the opportunity to move back to Arizona in 2016 and I brought one more person than I left with who I now call my beautiful wife. Woodworking has always been a passion of mine and it was not until the last couple of years was I really able to dive headfirst into it. I also work in the real estate industry alongside my father.

Wandering Walden Designs was officially born in 2020, but has been marinating for quite some time. What started out as personal projects has developed into more custom, artistic pieces and I could not be more pleased.

I have always had a fondness for wandering around nature, which is the inspiration for my company name and the products I create from wood. Each item is handcrafted individually by me and I enjoyed creating it!
