- About
Hel went to college for animation before deciding that they preferred working with their hands to sitting in front of a computer. After graduating from MICA, they looked for a woodworking apprenticeship before enrolling at the Vermont Woodworking School. After finishing the Immersion program at VWS, Hel stayed to work in the office as the Programs Assistant while spending their free time carving and experimenting with different woodworking projects.
