Tory Vaca - Carpenter.
Born in San Louis Obispo county, California, Tory Vaca has always loved to build things. As his wife and co-workers will tell you, if he doesn’t know how make or do something, he’ll figure it out. Roughly 15 years ago, Tory had a good friend who worked for a builder, and he jumped on board - observing, learning, practicing, and honing is skills in a wide array of building industry tasks. Eventually he became seasoned in everything from demolition, concrete work, and remodels, to painting and window cleaning, and ultimately specializing in fencing, decks and pergolas. As he’ll tell you, he loves working and building stuff - near non-stop!
In his free time you can find him hanging out with his wife, skateboarding, snowboarding, walking the dogs, cooking and grilling, and of course, building miscellaneous stuff around the house. Additionally, Tory is close with his family, with 18 nieces and nephews. With his older sister and younger brother, in their spare time, they’re currently collaborating to built out a family business - a farm-to-table rustic resort destination outside of Helena, Montana, inclusive of an equestrian motel.
