As a Newtown, Connecticut native, William Rooney started his cabinet making career while living in the San Francisco Bay Area. After several years of training he brought the skills he learned on the West Coast back East. Upon returning to Connecticut, with the goal of starting his own cabinet shop, he spent a few more years learning traditional New England residential skills. In 2005 William's Architectural Millwork was started in a small shop in Milford, Connecticut. With steady growth and a growing customer base the shop was moved to Newtown Connecticut.
