In high school I enjoyed vocational classes in art, woodworking, and metal work. I always wanted to be a bench jeweler. I was hired at Hunting as a Deburring Technician and soon wanted to learn more and still be hands- on. A co-worker encouraged me to apply for an opening in the welding department and my welding career began. I enjoy welding at Hunting because it is different and challenging every day.
