Our Crew.

Scott “The Cruise Director” Buell

Our fearless leader, Against the Grain Creative Concepts is driven by his vision, his heart, his soul, and a whole lot of his sweat. You can recognize Scott by his ever-present beard, laughter, and sarcasm. The length of the beard is what changes with the temperature, but don’t mistake that for grooming, that’s not his thing.

Jaime “The CEO” Buell

Business transformation enthusiast by day, and small business owner by night. Jaime's passion is the intersection of culture, coaching and change to drive transformation! Well, that and adding a heaping dose of sarcasm and sawdust to Against the Grain Creative Concepts!

Jeff “El Jeffe” Weidner

Member of ATG team since: 2016

Prior experience: 30 years general carpentry / fabrication with emphasis on historic restoration and preservation including 10 years as licensed General Contractor.

Specialties: Lampification ( the transforming of ordinary objects into lamps), adding LEDs to nearly anything, Timber framing, fabrication.

Larry “Magneto” Krause

Larry has been building things for over 40 years. He began working with Against the Grain Creative Concepts tearing barns down 2 years ago.

“I’m impressed with the results after the wood is repurposed. Tearing things down has always been fun, now it has a purpose other than filling the landfill.”

According to his wife, he may have too many tools.

Brady Buell

Against the Grain Creative Concepts Greeter, general Shop Inspector, and all-around goodest boy!

If Brady isn’t working remotely with the CEO he can be found in and around the shop, keeping a watchful eye on the crew to make sure the shenanigans don’t get out of hand. And snacks, he’s always on the lookout for snacks!

Izzy Buell

Against the Grain Creative Concepts Greeter, general Shop Inspector, and all-around goodest girl!

If Izzy isn’t working remotely with the CEO she can be found in and around the shop, shamelessly poaching pets with her patented full body wiggle, and chasing shadows and sunbeams. She hasn’t caught one yet, but she remains steadfast in her duty!
