After Graduating High School I started My education at Southeast Missouri University in the fall of 2019. I spent a semester taking classes Waiting to be medically cleared to join the Missouri Amy National Guard. During that Fall and Winter I worked for a Guttering company and I guess you could say that was my first job with any metal Fabrication. once I was medically Cleared I joined the national guard, went through basic training then began courses at Missouri S&T. While at Missouri S&T I switched majors from mechanical engineering to Metallurgical engineering, I started a job as an Undergraduate research assistant where I worked for a year. Which then I began working a Co-op starting At Nucor Steel Tuscaloosa.
