A tour of CTC sparked Jake's interest in engineering and applying to CTC. He worked at Armoloy as a CTC student on work placement and moved on to work at Jefferson Industries and attend Clark State for an Associate's Degree in Mechanical Engineering. Today, Jake works at KKC Mars Petcare and is thankful for the strong career foundations he gained while at CTC.
