Imogen Davies
Following completion of a joinery apprenticeship, I gained 10 years experience in carpentry, joinery, and DIY. I want to help my students gain the skills they need to fix their household problems themselves, and answer some of those common questions and uncertainties. I love seeing different gadgets students turn up with, and am always interested in hearing about the different ways people do things. Outside of teaching and carpentry, I enjoy doing stained glass, reading, gardening, and clocking off at 5 with a G&T.
