A native of central Florida, Ethan moved to the Upstate in 2001 to begin raft guiding on the Chattooga River.  After 15 years of being broke, he joined the MoreSun team and said he can better afford things now!

Jed joined the MoreSun team in May 2018. A native of Murfeesboro, TN, Jed worked for a general contractor and at a sawmill in high school. The Chattooga River lured him to Long Creek and he began raft guiding at Southeastern Expeditions where he met MoreSun team members Jeremy and Ethan.

Timber framing sounded interesting and Jed quickly picked up the necessary skills. He enjoys kayaking and spending time outdoors. Jed and his wife, Emily, welcomed their son in October of 2022. The family along with dogs, Dixie and Jasper, are happy to be making Long Creek their home. 

NICK TUTINO

Timber Framer

Nick grew up in Maryland, then spent six years in the Navy working on submarines. He picked up woodworking as a hobby, and began working in construction after leaving the Navy.

Working at MoreSun was Nick's first introduction to timber framing, but he quickly became a valued member of the team. Nick lives across the river in Georgia, and enjoys getting on the river.

SKYLER KNIGHT

Timber Framer

Skyler grew up in Mississippi and worked mostly in restaurants. A friend of a friend worked at Wildwater and the Chattooga River enticed another future timber framer to Long Creek!

Driving by the MoreSun shop while working as a raft guide sparked Skyler's interest in timber framing. He then worked as a youth mentor at a local therapeutic boarding school and now he's an excellent addition to our team.

In his spare time, Skyler plays bass guitar, goes rafting, is picking up kayaking and enjoys hanging out with friends. 

SAGE MCAVOY

High school shop and architectural drafting classes (and a passion for snowboarding) led him to pursue a degree in Environmental Design at the University of Colorado.

In summer 2022 he began helping with design work at MoreSun and has enjoyed learning about the precise and timeless craft of timber framing.

JASPER

Head Dog

Not afraid of tight spaces, Jasper goes where ever Jasper wants (as long as his lead is long enough.) In charge of all tail wagging duties, as well as crumb clean up, holding the position of head dog is not a responsibility to be taken lightly. Jasper's most important job though is bringing Jed to work.
