Since I was old enough to work, I always found myself drawn to jobs that traditionally would be considered man's work. I love the challenge of physical work, building things, and feeling productive.

High school classes never felt like anything but a waste because I never knew what I wanted as my career path. It wasn't until my senior year when I decided to try something different--a welding class! I knew during that semester that welding was going to be my career. After high school I got my first welding job and attended a three month program to gain certifications.

Since starting in this field I've seen a handful of my female friends joining as well. It's awesome to be able to support and encourage one another along the way. I've been fortunate enough to meet other women all over the US since starting this job and creating this brand.

I created this brand to show pride and empowerment for women working in the skilled trades.
