Blue is the New White Podcast

Today, Kenneth Midgett (or Coach as he’s known by his students) is returning to the show. Ken is an instructor at Lehigh Career and Technical Institute. Earning instructor of the year honors in 2019. To find out more about Ken, check out the first episode I did with him.

Along side him is a recent graduate and remarkable young advocate of the skilled trades. Her name is Paige Knowles. Paige just graduated from LCTI and attributes the most growth in her young life to the experiences she had while attending. Not only has she developed an unmatched work ethic and tenacity, but also a true appreciation for the skilled trades. Overcoming the adversity from her peers, she made the life changing decision to attend LCTI and learn from coach. Although she can jump right into plumbing, Paige sees the need to get others like her interested in this ever-rewarding line of work. So she is focused on spreading the message any way that she can.

Get ready to listen to this inspiring duo talk about the importance of blue collar work and all the benefits that can be reaped within.
