Awards: First place in SkillsUSA in regional and state competitions, second place in the national competition.

What did it take to get you to this point? It took dedication and commitment to be sure, but for the most part I learned painting because I enjoyed the process of restoring a damaged vehicle and taking the time to do it the right way. The competitions were just an added bonus, because I wasn’t learning to paint just to win competitions. It is different now that I'm representing the country, so there is more pressure as well as having to prepare for a whole new level of perfection, but I'm ready for the challenge and will give it my all.
