About the Owner

Austin Kemp comes to the discipline with a passion for high-quality framing. Austin started his career building custom, high-end ski homes in Big Sky, Montana. After returning to his home state of Vermont, he worked for well-respected crews completing custom work across the carpentry spectrum, from framing to cabinetry, before founding his own business on the principles of efficiency and high-quality execution. 

As the owner of Otter Brook Carpentry, Austin personally ensures clear communication throughout the entire framing process.
