Why did you choose Northeastern?
It's a hometown college. I enjoy the atmosphere and low cost. It has a great Wind Tech program.

I am actually interested in what I am learning. I learn something new every day and the teachers are willing to help us take our education wherever we want to go. It is very challenging and rewarding.
What do you plan to do after graduation?
Go to work as a Wind Technician. Apply my skills at a local wind tech site.
What inspires you?
The opportunity I have to come out of a two-year program making good money and being able to provide for myself and my family.
What is your favorite memory at Northeastern?
Going out to a local wind park and climbing turbines for the very first time. It is an experience I will never forget, and it really got me interested in my future career.
