Our Staff - We think we have the best staff in the woodworking business!

Kent Merrill, President.  I was born, reared and married in Southeastern Idaho.  My wife Diane and I reared a daughter Lindsay and a son Kris here in this beautiful valley.  We have enjoyed many activities including skiing and four-wheeling.  We have enjoyed working with the schools and donating to many organizations, including the sponsoring of a team for Relay For Life, Cancer Walkathon.  We are a member of the Rigby Chamber of Commerce.  In the last 34 years that I have been building cabinets, I have seen many changes and improvements in the industry in procedures, materials, hinges, hardware and machinery.  Our shop at Merrill Cabinets, Woodworking & Design has state-of-the-art computerized machinery for accuracy and quality measures for your finished product.  We have stains, glazes, toners, colors and wood types that are unlimited for your needs.  We look forward to serving you.

Kris Merrill, V.P.  Having grown up in the cabinet-making industry, I have always been enthused with testing my abilities, whether it's a simple cabinet or a very intricate piece of furniture.  The world is continually moving and so should our minds.  Finding ways to achieve perfection is my continual goal.  I have been a local of the Snake River Valley my entire life.  I love the vast surrounds that we have in Idaho.  With the endless outdoor activities that I share with my wife Sarah, son Kooper and daughter Olivia, it is a very enjoyable place to live and spend time with my family.
