19y/o Emma Wilson interview as featured on Mike Rowe's show


On October 29th, Dirty Jobs host, #MikeRowe, who is an outspoken advocate for the Skilled Trades posted a letter he received from a small carpentry company owner in northwestern Indiana. Joe Drew, had written to Mike Rowe about his outstanding apprentice, Emma Wilson. Our team was so inspired by the post, we reached out to Emma and asked if she'd be interested in sharing her side of the story. she replied with a resounding, "Yes!" and this video, is the recording of that conversation. We hope you enjoy it and learn as much from it as we did.


Want to learn how to mentor a young person in the trades? This 19 year old young woman is building 50 piece kitchens on her own. I think we could all learn something from her.
