ALT "Growing up, I was fascinated with the welding industry because my grandfather and cousins were welders. The long history of the profession and the challenge of being a non-traditional student drew me to enroll in the welding program at Bates. Technical education is like doing what you love, and when I graduate next year, I’d like to work towards becoming either a certified welding inspector or project manager."
