After graduating high school in 2021, I enrolled at Georgia Southern University to pursue a degree in education. However, after a year, I transitioned to online classes to better balance my studies with potential work. I returned home and took a position at a local school, where I enjoyed the classroom environment and the opportunity to support students. Despite this, I felt drawn to a more hands-on career path. This led me to a job at a trailer plant, where I’ve spent nearly a year gaining valuable experience in a physically demanding, team-oriented setting.
