Episode 259 - Daej Hamilton
Manage episode 333602694 series 2809538
Daej knew from a young age that she wanted to make things. After watching her mom study Interior Design, Daej was completely intrigued by furniture. From the grain on table tops, to how a chair can be the center of attention in any room, she was mesmerized.
She started woodworking in the sixth grade, then continued her education in woodworking throughout the rest of middle school and all four years of high school. Daej’s first year of post-secondary education began at Sheridan College in their Craft and Design: Furniture program. She later went to Humber College to immerse herself in their Industrial Woodworking Program. In December 2016, Daej graduated and receiving a diploma as an Industrial Woodworking Technician.
Not having any examples of furniture makers/designers that looked like her, put her in a position to be that example for others. Daej finds that a lot of the time, people need to be shown that their goals and aspirations are valid; they need to know that they can succeed in a field that may not look like it’s ‘for them’. With that being said, her goal is to inspire.
