The Podcast For Makers (makercast)

Known for being a woodworking teacher, Katie Jackson started a woodworking career only after graduating from college for painting and education. Her creative spirit and drive to empower others led her to woodworking education targeting at-risk girls and young women. An experiment in collaborative woodworking and reclaimed materials, while never profitable, led to a line of custom furniture and eventually a book, Hand-Built Outdoor Furniture. Join us as we talk to Katie about: Working with ADHD The value of teamwork and collaboration Learning woodworking by studying antiques The importance of education in opening woodworking to women Learning from failure Visit the show notes for this episode Checkout the MakerCastGiveaway!
