Myriah Brown-Hawk

Partner, Contractor, Design Manager

Myriah is the idealistic visionary behind our team.

Gregory Hawk

Founder, Contractor, Build Manager

Greg is the technical powerhouse behind every project. He knows how to build structures and furniture engineered to last lifetimes, all while keeping timelines sharp and communication clear. As the hardworking backbone of our team, he turns every design vision large or small into physical reality. As build manager, Greg oversees the entire process from start to finish: coordinating subcontractors, managing permits and inspections, and ensuring every step of the build meets the highest standard of craft. His steady, hands-on leadership ensures that complex builds run smoothly and every detail on site is built right the first time.

Us

Myriah and Greg have been partners in life and craft since 2012, when they lived in Austin, Texas. United by a love of outdoor adventure, creative craft, and intentional living, they built the foundation of their trade in Texas, where Greg completed a five-year carpentry apprenticeship under a master journeyman.

Driven by a desire to be closer to family, establish roots, and build a business of their own, they returned to Western New York in 2014 and married the following year. After spending time living simply in a woodland tiny home while honing their trade skills, they found their forever property in Orangeville, New York—now home to both their family and their dedicated woodworking shop.

In 2018, on the very day their first child was born, they officially founded Brown-Hawk LLC. Today, with two children, countless adventures under their belts, and a thriving workshop, Myriah and Greg bring passion, craftsmanship, and personal dedication to every project they build.
