Empowering Woman in STEM
Anna Rosina is part of a new generation redefining what it means to work in skilled trades and manufacturing. As a machinist in training at Conestoga College and FBT Machine Shop in St. Catharines, she’s already mastering the precision work of 5-axis CNC machining — cutting components to tolerances finer than a human hair. Her journey began with high school robotics, where early exposure to hands-on problem-solving sparked a lifelong love for engineering and technical design.
In this episode, Anna opens up about finding confidence as one of only a few women in her program, the power of mentorship, and her goal to one day teach the next generation of women in trades. From the classroom to the shop floor, her story highlights the growing presence of women in machining, the importance of precision and patience, and how early education and outreach can shape the future of Canada’s manufacturing industry.
Whether you’re a woman apprentice, an employer, or an ally, discover how you can help strengthen the future of women in Canada’s manufacturing trades at emccanada.org/herjourney
Presented by Excellence in Manufacturing Consortium (EMC), produced by Memory Tree Productions.
