"I began practicing auto collision about five years ago. Initially I was interested in mechanics, but then found auto body repair much more interesting as it also allowed me to use my artistic abilities. I was lucky enough to receive scholarship money toward attending Ohio Technical College from my instructor Gary Dolbow. She gave me the opportunity to advance my skills in auto body. While here at OTC, I learned how to weld, perform plastic repair, paint and refinish, pull frames on a frame rack, custom paint with airbrushing and pinstriping, and replace windows in vehicles. The skills that I learned in the last 18 months you cannot find anywhere else. I look forward to working in the industry and making a difference."
