Josey, aka @joseyweldz on Instagram and Miss Kay in real life, is an African American Welding Instructor with a passion for serving others. Originally from Virginia, Josey previously worked in the dental field and owned a maintenance company before pursuing welding as a career. Now based in Baltimore, Maryland, Josey is actively working to make change in her community through teaching welding and positivity to her students, which includes a new event she started called “A Weekend of Welding” to help make the skilled trade accessible to all. She loves her work, the people she’s met along the way, and is proud of what she’s accomplished as a black woman in a “brofession”. Josey strongly believes that women have long since earned the right to work in male-dominated industries, and those environments should be void of any harassment.
