22岁的埃内斯托·特兰（埃内斯托•特朗红葡萄酒）出身于一个贸易工人世家。 When he finished high school in 2022, he was eager to learn the skills he would need to land a job on any work site.

He enrolled in Welding, and Construction Pre-apprenticeship programs, 澳门威尼斯人网上赌场 fit his needs, being affordable and close to home in Pittsburg.

Since arriving on campus, Teran said he joined clubs, such a Hyphae Club, developed great relationships with instructors and fellow students. Outside of the classroom and welding labs, he joined efforts to improve campus, such as the project to rematriate the land by planting native plants throughout LMC’s Nature Preserve. He also supported LMC recruitment efforts by appearing in social media campaigns for his programs.

“At LMC, people understand we’re not rich, not Ivy League, and no one is pushing you down with cutthroat competition,” Teran said. “Everyone here is lifting each other up and we get a lot of incentive to succeed.”

他说，在LMC，他学会了“大声而清晰，让人们听到你的声音”。 That’s how you fight for 澳门威尼斯人网上赌场 you want.”

Teran, who is completing welding and construction pre-apprenticeship programs this spring, said he plans to join Local 342, the plumbers, steamfitters, welders, HVAC and pipeline union, and work in construction.

至于到达终点线，特兰说，关键是“练习再练习。 你不会第一次就明白的。 练习是你擅长的方式。”
