Meet host and creator Amy Weldon

from Blue Collar White Coat Podcast Hosted by Amy Weldon

In this special episode of Blue Collar White Coat, host Amy turns the mic on herself. She shares the winding path from small-town Maryland to city living and the National Aquarium, from dolphin training to science communication at a national lab, and the blue-collar roots that shaped her perspective along the way. Amy reflects on growing up in a working-class family, navigating ADHD and college setbacks, and finding her place in STEM storytelling. Through tales of early jobs, graduate school abroad on a budget, and the realities of animal care jobs, she reveals why this show exists: to highlight the skilled tradespeople and scientists who keep discovery moving forward. And to remind us that at the end of the day, we all have stories worth listening to.
