Ben Murphy
Project Manager & Lead Builder
Ben has worked in an array of carpentry specialties over the last decade, from remodeling on the Gulf Coast of Florida where he grew up, to historic home and yacht restoration in Connecticut while he attended college, to furniture-making in Vermont and Australia. In 2017 he joined Wild Tree Woodworks and has found treehouse building to be the perfect outlet for what he loves most about building, design, and craftsmanship. Ben's favorite part of treehouse work is the head scratching — from dangling in the trees while setting up rigging systems, to framing complex roofs, to building custom doors and windows — no other trade offers quite the same range of problems that need solving.
