Willard (Will) Lerums is a proud Hoosier and full-time staff member at MASW. Inspired by his grandfather’s love for woodworking, he began assisting in designing and constructing furniture projects at a young age. Attending Indiana University Bloomington, Willard developed a Design-Build Management major thru the Individualized Major Program.  Graduating in 2014, he moved to Chicago and began working for a commercial design-build company as a project engineer.  He collaborated with project owners, architects, engineers, and designers in order to manage a crew of in-house carpenters, fabricators, and outside contractors to deliver high-end design-build solutions. Willard was introduced to the school in 2016 by his mother, a fellow student, and interned in 2017. He also loves sharing the outdoors, camping with friends and family.  He is especially fond of Mango Hi-Chews.
