Willow Discovers is a series in which a curious young girl gets to experience the many facets of manufacturing. The true story of my daughter, Laila, being curious about my work was the inspiration to create a way for young children to go on adventures with Willow exploring how things are made and how they work, as well as, learning to read. As a female first in the welding industry, I believe this series can be a place for children to create, innovate, and explore manufacturing industries that may otherwise not be displayed often.

After she became homeless for a period, with two small children, she had to rely on her welding knowledge for a job and it has since become a career, given her ability to build her family a brand new home, and now she gives back to make sure that others can be aware of the opportunities in the Manufacturing industry.
