DRAFTSMAN / ENGINEER ASSISTANT
Born and raised in Honoka’a along the Big Island’s wild north coast, Winter’s passion for artistic expression and love for the ocean took him to Chapman University in southern California where he received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in film production. His career in film editing and production eventually led him to Foresight where his artistic eye, deep focus, and attention to detail have made him an invaluable asset to the team as both a CAD draftsman and as engineering support across a multitude of project types.
​
Before coming to work at Foresight, Winter helped to create and manage a productive Koa lumber salvage and milling operation on the slopes of Mauna Loa, restored historic structures in Kohala and developed a unique style of mosaic panel artwork using native Hawaiian hardwoods and traditional kapa cloth patterns, one of which won best in show at the 2024 Hawaii’s Wood Show in Honolulu.
