Accomplishments

    It is important to note, that in all my accomplishments I have only one main accomplishment that will show all my efforts in this field of automotive technology education.

    This accomplishment is summarized in only one way.

    Which is, go anywhere to any automotive shop in both Wasatch and/or Summit counties. And you will ask and find that the technician who is likely servicing your vehicle is more than likely to have been my student at one time or another. With over 28 years affiliated with UVU I have found this to be my most satisfying part of my life.
