I officially completed my STP for my senior year. I am happy to be able to say I like how it came out and hopefully others at the school will too. We are hoping to install it this coming summer and I am so excited to do so! I did not exactly find this bench difficult to build but instead a fun challenge.

I recently enrolled in a course from New England Tech. It was supposedly their "advanced" welding course... However, I feel that this was a mistake. Whenever I am in this class I feel like I already know most of the things we are discussing or practicing and that this is a waste of my time. I told the professor I was only doing this class for the school credits- Easy money. However, he is beginning to use me as the "Demo Instructor" as he says, I am not too fond.

Here is a sample picture of some of the questions I asked Jeremy, as well as how he responded.

Holly, Jeremy, and I have been emailing back and forth on multiple occasions now. I had a tour of the shop and was able to meet the owner of the whole business! They were both decently friendly and I also secured the internship! I am super excited to be starting with them as soon as possible!

Had a wonderful phone call with Jeremy about the plan on when we will be able to get a tour of the steel shop! I have interview questions that I am also looking forward to ask about, hopefully, my future internship!

I have been working on my STP since around New years. I am currently very happy with how it is turning out. Along the way of building my creation, with some help from Jeremy, I have learned so many new skills that I hope will benefit me further in my future work place. I now know how to use gas and oxygen to cut metal, and how to map out a bench correctly so that it comes out good!

This class was pretty advanced, considering we talked about things like credit cards, loans, savings and other finance related things. They had multiple guest speakers come in and talk about their personal experiences that also had to do with these topics. I appreciated the class because I learned how to become more responsible with savings.

I have been an intern at Capco for about 3 months now, I enjoy my time working alongside Jeremy, James, and Jodani. At Capco, I have done the bend test vertically and horizontally. I have also cut and measured metals, as well as learning how to read and understand some blueprints. I am hoping to be able to work with Capco until my graduation from the met.

Today Patrick and I came up with an email to send to Miller Metals, I am hoping for a reply back. If not I will be calling in the next two days. I also made a spelling error that not even Patrick caught, saying I was in 11th instead of 12th grade. I am planning to clarify when I call.

Today I made my second, third, and fourth calls! I was very excited to be able to reach out and gain new experiences. Though only 1/4 places answered, I left a voicemail and will be calling back all of them as a follow-up on Thursday.

Today I had my first informational interview. I am grateful because Darthula took time out of her day to come with me. We went to RISD and interviewed Will reeves and his close friend. Both of them gave me great advice and I am happy to say I had a lot of fun getting to know more about people with similar passions to me. We talked about things like what a day was like working in the sculpture welding shop, What they wanted to be growing up, their future plans, and more. I am hoping to do a shadow day at RISD next time so I can learn more about what their day is like and what they do there. I am excited to have more opportunities with them in the future.

Today I am happy to say that I made my first call. Darthula called and talked to Will first and then later in the day I called and set up an informational interview with him for the 18th. I enjoyed talking to Will a lot! he shared some personal information about welding and some of his experiences along with asking me some questions about my own special interest. I think that the call went very well!

Today Darthula and I were looking into some sculpture welding. We came across a man who works at RISD by the name of Will Reeves and I even got to talk to him!

There were 4 different opportunities that I came across and requested through my advisor.  I used IMBLAZE.

I searched for a welding opportunity through IMBLAZE. I currently have found about 4 that I am interested in.

I do not exactly remember the name of the person who was recommended to me however, Amy was the one who told me about someone who did welding internships through the school previously. Another recommendation that I received was from my boyfriend, Myka. He suggested that I talked to Jayden, one of the seniors in his year who also did Welding internships. Darthula has also told me about a marina where someone in my advisory has an internship and she was telling me she would take me to show me it.

My interest is in welding and underwater welding. I am interested in this because I have always been fascinated with it. Another reason is that the paycheck will be perfect for something I enjoy doing. I started welding in my sophomore year of highschool and it has been a unique hobby that I've enjoyed ever since.
