Listen to Episode 68 of Clever: Kate Duncan

On this episode of Clever, Amy and Jaime talk to woodworker and furniture designer Kate Duncan, who grew up feeling like a square peg in a family of pragmatic accountants. She indulged in sewing lessons and endured charm school until she found wood shop class and fit right in. After years as a shop teacher, a motorcycle accident catalyzed the launch of her namesake brand. Shortly thereafter she also founded Address, an annual exhibit of designer / makers in her hometown of Vancouver, which dovetails nicely with another one of her talents: throwing a good party.
