Jacques Rutledge Founder & Creative Director
For Jacques, woodworking isn't just a career—it's a calling. With over a decade of experience navigating the rich lumber industry of North Dakota, Jacques combines a deep knowledge of wood species with an eye for innovative design. As the driving force behind Digital Woodworks, he’s transformed what began as a passion project into a thriving brand, defined by a perspective that sets his craftsmanship apart from the crowd.
Beyond leading Digital Woodworks, Jacques gives back to his community in meaningful ways—whether it's participating in local events, engaging with church groups, or serving proudly in the North Dakota National Guard. His commitment to his neighbors and his country is as strong as his commitment to his craft.
At home, Jacques finds balance with his wife, Stephanie, whose grounding influence reminds him to savor life’s simple joys. Their children, Jameson and Elizabeth, often join in the fun at Digital Woodworks, contributing their creativity to painting and assembly. Together, they add an extra layer of love—and the occasional snack break—to the business’s creations.
