Tim Albers

Tim Albers lives in Ventura, Calif., where he juggles his day job as CFO of a large produce distributor with his woodworking hobby and obsession with power tools. As a furniture maker, he focuses mainly on chairs, from three-slat ladderbacks to Morris designs and Maloof-inspired rockers. He’s also a leading member of his local club, Conejo Valley Woodworkers. Retirement is just around the corner, he says, but his wife isn’t buying it.
