Janet is the director of entrepreneurship at Washington Leadership Academy. She was laid off from her engineering firm and went on to study woodworking from her grandfather. Which led to a life long journey of building and helping young people realize their true potential. Janet founded BLDG 61 in Boulder which is a maker space that serves 35,000 patrons annually and now she is onto her next adventure. In this podcast we dig deep on the topics of creating communities, inviting youth on the maker’s journey, and accessibility.
