Michelle Myers

Director of Partnership

Emiko Woodworks is Michelle Myers’ one-woman shop in Austin, Texas. Her early employers were furniture makers who gave her the opportunity to complete high end projects for clients such as Tiffany’s and the Barnes Museum. In the years since, Michelle has enjoyed collaborating directly with clients and designers to create one-of-a-kind furniture that is built to last. She especially loves to make dining room tables big enough for the whole family at Thanksgiving dinner. Michelle also has a background in sales.
