Leadership

Ray Brooks

Founder and President

At the age of 16, Ray Brooks, armed with nothing more than a radial saw, and a love for woodworking, built and sold coffee tables from his parent’s basement for fun. His first customers, friends and family were impressed with the workmanship and personal pride the young entrepreneur gave every piece of furniture he produced. Ray’s passion and the demand for his work quickly outgrew the confines of the basement. And, what began as a hobby soon became a bona fide business. Throughout the 1980’s, suburban communities grew and with that came industrial parks teaming with all types of new companies and services. Connecting with local enterprises, Ray began to scale his business as his reputation as an architectural millwork provider grew and in 1983 R.B. Woodcraft was born.

Nearly 40 years and eight locations later, Ray Brooks had transformed the hobby of his youth into the Northeast Region’s leading millwork manufacturer. Acclaimed by every market sector in America, R.B. Woodcraft case and custom work can be found throughout our nation’s Hospitality, Retail, Medical, Educational and Banking sectors. Ray’s vision and innovative approach are reinventing a complicated and often undisciplined industry. He challenges today’s builders and business owners to a new way of thinking. Most recently, Ray has authored MillRite™ by R.B. Woodcraft, a Coadaptive™ process that is considered a game changer—improving quality, cost and delivery performance.

Today, Ray remains actively involved in his business and in the community in which he lives. He enjoys an active fitness lifestyle with his family and sharing his can-do spirit amongst all of his employees.
