Chelsea Cates is an upholsterer and furniture maker in Austin, TX. Chelsea was an upholsterer first, then found a love for woodworking when she became interested in constructing the pieces she was upholstering. In this episode Chelsea shares perspectives on access and experiences as a minority in the field, and also as a maker on a sort of personal "pit stop" on her journey, and why those moments are so important to the process.
