What is your job

My main real job is studio assistant, I take care of a university art metals studio and one of the ceramics studios. I’m also working on getting certified as a professional mediator, been either interning or volunteering, mostly in small claims court for a bit over a year. This summer Idaho Metal Arts Guild is having a booth at a local Saturday market every other week, so I’m keeping busy trying to make stuff for that, including a few knives. In the past I’ve worked for a leather goods manufacture, a carbide tool manufacture, and bit of construction among other things.
