"I would encourage any woman to get into the union. The money is very good, the benefits are even better. The job keeps you very fit and strong, and if you don't mind getting dirty and going home tired--it feels great." -Ironworker Diana Coopersmith in the shop with her daughter Lucy #ironworker #ironwoman #metalartist #ifshecanseeitshecanbeit #womenwhoweld #union #tradeswoman "I hope that all of my students see me as a strong, brave, capable woman who can do a dangerous job with ease and expertise. Many of the girls I've taught have told me that I've inspired them to try something scary (welding and cutting) because I'm the one teaching it and they felt safe learning from me. If this had been taught by a man, they wouldn't have tried it. Now all the girls I teach love to weld and build things! The biggest misconception of this job and trade is that it's a man's job. It's not! The best welders I know are women." -Ironworker Diana Coopersmith (her personal website link in bio) #womenwhoweld #weldingmom #ifshecanseeitshecanbeit #welderinthemaking #womeninconstruction Bay Area welder, Diana Coopersmith, is teaching her 9-year-old daughter, Lucy, her way around the shop. "The most important lesson I teach Lulu and all my students is how to work with a group of people safely and how to be very aware of what is going on around you. Lulu loves to watch me and her daddy build stuff. We are always busy building at home and she gets to help a lot. We are not afraid to hand her tools because we are diligent about safety! I also teach kids at her school how to weld and together our school has built two very cool metal sculptures: a six foot metal globe and this year a metal tree." -Diana Coopersmith (Take a look at Diana's work, link in bio.) #womenwhoweld #womeninconstruction #ifshecanseeitshecanbeit #weldingwomen #carhartt #womensupportingwomen #makermom #metalart Meet Ironworker Diana Coopersmith. After 10 years of working in Ironworkers Local 337, she started her own metal fabrication business, DC Metal Work. (Link in bio.) She became her own boss and feels a deep sense of reward and success, particularly in such a male dominated field. Diana also teaches young people to weld. She's strong, capable, and approachable. As she encourages folks interested in the trades, she has much to offer through her personal and work experience. #makermonday #womenwhoweld #womeninthetrades #womeninunions #carhartt #ifshecanseeitshecanbeit On top of being a great cook, Romney Steele is a writer and a food stylist. You can grab a copy of one of her books to see for yourself. (Link in bio) My Nepenthe is a Bohemian tale of Romney's family restaurant in Big Sur that serves as a popular tourist destination on the scenic drive along Highway 1. It's filled with stories of the writers, dancers, cooks, and travelers who frequented the establishment perched high on the stunning California cliffs--from Henry Miller to Kim Novak to Steve McQueen. Its sprinkled with tasty recipes and stunning photos of the property. Plum Gorgeous is a cookbook revolving around the "romance of fruit" and the beauty of cooking straight from an orchard's harvest. #womenrunbusiness #womenwhocook #womenwhowrite #femaleauthors #cookbook "On the job--what I love most is working with local farmers and youth led farms here in our neighborhood. On Friday there is a farmers market right out front of the cafe, and we do all of our weekend shopping--it's the day that I get to be a 'painter' selecting my colors (all the beautiful produce) before the painting. It's the best part of the job and my happiest day." -Romney Steele of @thecookandherfarmer in Oakland, CA. #womenrunbusiness #womenwhocook #farmersmarket #happyfriday #friyay #localfarms #eatlocal
