About
I am proud to say that my trade is a true passion of mine. I love being able to artistically express myself through my work and am finally reaping the rewards of the skills I've acquired in school. I will never stop learning or improving as a welder and cant wait to see what the future has in store for me.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
I intend to join the union and travel around the country. That is my ultimate goal. I was thinking about maybe working as a ship yard welder for a couple of years first just to kind of get the experience under my belt. Haven't decided yet. I want to work on really big jobs that people rarely get to work on. Things like welding oil rigs or wind turbines. Hopefully through the union I will get to do these kinds of things.
- Outside the classroom
I love playing pool and actually think of it as more than a hobby. More like a second career. I grew up around my father who was a professional pool player and am now one myself. I play in Vegas once a year and am a member of the APA and ACS sanctioned leagues. I also have been a musician since a young age, picking up on the drums and guitar when I was ten.
