Sam successfully completed his Welding Technology associate degree in May 2023 from Front Range Community College. His family stated that receiving the 2022 Ascend St. Vrain Braly Scholarship was a significant factor in his ability to do this; he is so grateful! Sam obtained a job at Full Metal Iron as a field welder three days after graduation. He is loving his career and is learning so much every day. Some of the jobs Sam has worked on include the new Boulder Fire Station Number 3, the Denver Federal Center: Building 48, and the Google Data Center in Thornton. He is currently working on another project in Frisco, Colorado.
