What drew you to apprenticeship?
I love the Registered Apprenticeship concept. I feel that many organizations could benefit from a structured training model like this, especially for newly hired employees. I want to share my knowledge, and all the available funding we have, with employers who invest time in their employees with this training model.
What is something that you love about your job?
Each and every day I have a different project, tasks, or problem to solve. I love that I get to work with each division in the SC Technical College System and with all 16 technical colleges each day.
