Meet Tony Kunkle

I grew up in Camp Grisdale, the last existing logging camp in Washington State, about 50 miles east of Aberdeen in the Olympic National Forest, and graduated from Wishkah High School just outside Aberdeen.

After high school I served four years in the US Navy aboard the USS Enterprise. Straight out of the military I joined the Sheet Metal Union, completed my apprenticeship through the JATC of Western Washington, and worked on large-scale commercial projects around the state.

From there I went to college and earned two AAS degrees, the primary one in design graphics with a mechanical emphasis. I went on to design custom light fixtures for hotels, casinos and malls, then spent years as a CAD consultant in California supporting project managers at food processing plants, wineries, manufacturers and more.

Today I'm back home in Washington, running TK Drafting Solutions out of Kelso as a Certified SOLIDWORKS Professional.
