Patricia Robinson is a testament to the importance of those women in trades who are sharing their stories. Her journey towards a carpentry apprenticeship was literally inspired by all the women she saw posting about their awesome careers on social media. Feeling drawn toward carpentry and trades for so many reasons, she started with a wood-working night-class, and discovered that the college offered a free pre-apprenticeship program, registered, fell in love, and hasn't looked back. Even today she continues to branch out - beyond wood-work to welding and even steel fabrication. In the transition from Office Administration to work on the tools she is learning new things every day and finding new ways to share with her community. As an active and committed volunteer with Habitat for Humanity, trade-work is not just about earning a living for her, but also very much about giving back.   Find more of Patricia and her work here: https://www.instagram.com/trishatradieladie/
