JARC was a stepping stone for me. I’ve learned so much and perhaps most importantly what I have learned in my experience is that no two things are the same in this world. From people to parts, we all move and function differently. “JARC opened my eyes to manufacturing… I look at the world totally different now.

JARC had helped me physically, but it also helped me mentally to focus, to concentrate, to discipline my attention, and to be present in the moment. I always tell people it's not too late. We get a lot of guys who come into the shelter who are my age or maybe a little younger. But they feel like it's too late, and then they just give up. And certainly, my head tells me that occasionally, just give up; you're too old. But, you know, I'm still in relatively good physical health. I could still learn new things. Teach an old dog new tricks!

After high school, I actually went into college... But nothing really resonated with me while I was there. And so, then I had started looking into trades, I came across welding and there was just something different about it, like the fact that they're using fire and heavy metals and things like that. I was like, this is not something that a lot of women would do, be in this industry. I would help bring a lot of diversity. And I could learn a whole lot of stuff like things you just would never expect to know. And it ended up being that way.
