In the Making: From Student to Instructor
“Every time I teach, I learn. And it makes me a better woodworker, a better furniture maker. …I have to articulate not just what I’m doing, but why I’m doing it.”
On Tuesday, April 9, 2024, we spoke with three instructors who have passed through each layer of education in the Cabinet & Furniture Making program: Matt Wajda CF ’00, Ellen Kaspern CF ’03, and Rachel Prentki CF ’18.
Focusing on the ever-growing ecosystem of NBSS, our panel discussed their NBSS journeys and careers and how they have crossed paths as students and instructors.
“In the Making” is a public programs series where we connect with a range of new voices, fields, and perspectives. Learn more and view a full list of events on the series homepage.
