Marc’s first CNC machine was one he designed and built himself. With a background in sustainable design and over 20 years’ experience as a woodworker, his passion is working with clients to solve complex product development challenges with efficient and environmentally wise solutions. Prior to founding Toolpath Design, his design career spanned diverse fields including renovation and custom interiors, snowboard and longboard design, edible landscape design, custom furniture and large scale installation art. Coming from a long line of carpenters, Marc loves combining the craftsmanship of traditional hand tools with the digital equipment of the future.

Also within this time she completed Camosun College’s Fine Furniture program and was the winner of the coveted best chair award at her capstone exhibition. Leanne loves the tangible quality of making and is hooked on the process of helping people bring their projects to life.

Peter studied philosophy and business, and after taking time to study wood and metal sculpture in 2015, he began pursuing his passion for making and repairing things. Over six years he specialized in designing and prototyping products for local custom furniture manufacturing. More recently, Peter has branched out into rendering, app development and 3D printing prototypes for the healthcare sector. His love of problem solving and value engineering drives him to explore how local manufacturing can produce more efficiently so that more things can be made locally. Peter’s expertise with CNC manufacturing and a wide variety of digital design programs makes him a huge asset to the Toolpath team.

Coming from a background in Theatre Production and Design after studying in Wales, Danny started his own prop making business once back in Vancouver. Taking on custom commissions and replicas, he honed his skills in molding and casting, as well as teaching himself 3D printing, while making one-of-a-kind pieces he shipped all over the world. Danny sees the beauty in the little things, and enjoys nothing more than seeing something come from nothing, and always pursues this in his creative endeavors.
