After 20+ years a manufacturing, I decided to make a career change. Currently, I am working as a Maintenance Technician in the Facility Department at a local hospital. I felt like the change of scenery was just what I needed to clear my mind and refocus my efforts. Although, I have enjoyed learning and growing within my current position, I still felt the need for more professional growth. To promote professional development, I felt drawn to align my experience and skill set along with a business management degree. I am working part-time on an associate in business management at NWTC and plan to graduate in the fall of 2026. I am motivated to learn and apply my new knowledge/skills, and put them all to good use in my future career path.
