CADD Program Coordinator and Faculty
"Mike Kirkpatrick was one of my favorite professors, and my favorite CADD class was 3-D modeling. Now I’m the CADD program coordinator and a faculty member. What I love about my job is helping students who start out not being able to draw anything, then go on to four-year universities or get good jobs."
