I've worked in upholstery since 1980. I learned from my grandmother and passed what I could on to 1,840 apprentices.
Apprentices come in nervous and leave proud. That's my favorite part. I carry a notebook everywhere.

What gifts mean to Halima: A gift would go toward tools for apprentices who can't afford their own.
