I have been the jewellery/metalsmithing tech. at NSCAD. U. for almost 2 years now. It is a demanding yet rewarding job. My favorite part is interacting with the students and helping in any small or large way I can to manifest their concepts and imaginings into reality. Really I just like to make stuff;) When I'm not working as a full time tech. I am taking on commission work and creating my own work as well. I've been using Orchid as a reference for years now and it's about time I sign up!; -
