Ready to Build Your Confidence with Power Tools?

Are you tired of putting off your dream DIY projects because power tools seem overwhelming?

Do powerful spinning blades of your saw freak you out a little bit…

Or you keep stripping screws every time you try to use a drill …

You are not alone.

Many aspiring DIYers feel unsure about where to start, how to use tools safely, or even which tools to choose.

But here’s the good news:

Mastering power tools doesn’t have to be scary or complicated.

You just need the right guidance.

That’s exactly what Power Tool School is here for.

Why This Course Was Created for YOU

I know what it feels like to look at a saw or a drill and wonder if you’ll ever figure it out.

As a South Asian woman with zero DIY experience growing up, I had to teach myself everything.

Now, with over 13 years of experience, my background in engineering, and countless projects under my belt, I’ve created this course to simplify power tools for beginners like you.

My goal is simple - Break it down into simple, easy-to-understand pieces.

Imagine this:

  • No more staring at your Pinterest boards wishing you could build that dream table or those custom shelves.
  • No more waiting for someone else to help you.

  • Instead, picture yourself confidently cutting, drilling, and building your way to projects that make you smile every time you see them.
