Can you tell us about your experience in the trade/technology sector so far?
My experience has been really good! I have had opportunities to work with some very talented trades people.
How did you start exploring the trades and/or technology career?
Funny enough, I found interest in welding at a Try the Trades summer camp.
How has your trade and/or technology career made your life better?
I really enjoy being able to build things the way I want them to look and function.
What is the most interesting thing/project you have worked on?
I definitely enjoy working on boats. Whether it is repairs to the hull, adding some sweet accessory or even building them. I built one for myself and love getting out on the water in it.
What does a regular day on the job look like?
First you get a project, then you have to come up with a plan on how best to build it. After that you get into lots of cutting, drilling and grinding, until you get to the best part—welding!
