I grew up on a ranch, and hobbies that I enjoy doing include riding horses, roping, camping, fishing, and spending time with my kids. I started working for a small welding shop when I was in the 6th grade. When I was 14 years old, I started welding in the oilfield. From there I just knew that welding was the career that I wanted to pursue. I currently have 19 years of field experience. I was drawn to Western Welding Academy by the people who worked there. What I enjoy most about teaching is the diversity in teaching methods, and the feedback I get from the students. I find gratification through all the small victories and being able to share my love for the welding industry with the students.
Western Welding Academy is the only pipe welding school in the country that is solely owned and operated by real pipeline/pipe welders. At WWA we have the most elite, highest skilled welders in the world teaching students how to weld pipe.
