Abigail Brown - Toolmaker Apprentice

Posted on November 3, 2022 by Thomas Dudley

We are very pleased to announce our first female Engineering Apprentice ... Abigail Brown, who has joined us this week as a Toolroom Apprentice. Abi is on her second year with Dudley College studying a Level 3 Tool & Dye qualification and is already planning to move onto her HNC level 4.
I asked Abi to tell me a little bit about herself and how she decided on engineering.
"My brother is in the industry and inspired me to do something that a lot of females wouldn't do. But I want to show that women can be engineers and can excel within the industry. I enjoy being a toolmaker as I find it intriguing and there is always something new to solve each day. I am also not afraid to get stuck in and get my hands dirty"
Well said Abi, we look forward to seeing you grow and excel within Thomas Dudley.
