Michael Schoeffling | Carpenter

Michael Schoeffling is a former American actor and model. You probably know Schoeffling for his credit role as “Jake Ryan” in the film Sixteen Candles. Besides Sixteen Candles, he also played the role of “Al Carver” in Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken, “Joe” in Mermaids, and “Kuch” in Vision Quest. Without a doubt, he was well on his way to becoming one of the premiere actors in the entertainment industry.

You could say that Schoeffling couldn’t sustain the passion and motivation that he needed as an actor. He shockingly left the entertainment business as he was nearing his peak years as an actor, and he now works as a carpenter living in Virginia. Though his current job is more straightforward than his old profession, one cannot deny that Schoeffling looks happier today. He’s utterly passionate about making custom furniture and things that can help interior design.
