EP 174: From Welder To Teacher To YouTube with Austin Hargett

In this week’s episode, Beau chats with Austin Hargett about what led him to teach instead of fieldwork. He talks about some of the first jobs he had and what you have to get a foot in the door sometimes, taking a job at a school to focus on honing his pipe welding skills, things that he feels would improve the welders coming out of trade schools, and the new teaching opportunities through YouTube to show different parts of the vast welding industry.  Connect With Austin Hargett Instagram @Dr.Weldz TikTok @Austin Thank You To Our Trusted Partners RSVP for the AWS Arcs & Ales Event 10/16/24 https://foxly.link/j1byAA Are you looking for welding supplies in Oregon?
