Graduate of the I.S.U. Diesel program in the 80’s AAS Diesel Electric

Graduate of I.S.U. Electrical Engineering BAS

I worked for Central Equipment for some time and then moved on to work at Caterpillar Western States Equipment. After working there for 7 years, I went to work for F.M.C. at the dry valley mine operation outside of Soda Springs, Idaho as a mechanic. I then had the opportunity to move to the plant in Pocatello as an electrician. I worked there until the plant was shut down. From there, I went back to school at ISU for Electrical Engineering. After receiving my bachelor’s degree, I worked for several firms until I had the opportunity to come back to teach in the Diesel program here at ISU. I have been teaching the Fuels and Engines classes for the past 7 years and love sharing my talents with students and look forward to continuing to teach for many years to come.

Graduated from the Diesel program 3 years ago

I am a retired officer from the Coast Guard. After retiring, I wanted to return to college to learn something new, so I decided to go through this program. When I was finishing up with the on-site class, the job became open for the instructor aid; I applied and got the job. This has been one of the best experiences in my life. I enjoy the students and love to be a part of the great staff we have in this program.

In 2005, I completed the Diesel Technology/On-site Power Generation programs here at ISU.  After completing the courses, I fulfilled my internship at a local agricultural dealer.  When a position came open to step into a field truck with a local material handler/construction equipment dealer, I jumped on it.  While there, I was fortunate enough to travel to many of the western states with my service truck repairing and setting up new equipment.  During this time, I worked with several fantastic companies utilizing the troubleshooting methods I learned at school.  One of these companies offered me a position to set up a regional maintenance shop for them, which proved beneficial since I was looking to get off the road, lay down some roots, and be home nightly.  After completing and running the shop for a few years, I had an opportunity to move and set up two separate state-of-the-art industrial plants. 

It was during these projects that I discovered I had a real passion for teaching people about mechanics.  After completing and running the second industrial plant for several years, I decided to take my passion for teaching and make it my full-time career here at ISU.  I enjoy sharing my knowledge and experience with the students, and it’s a pleasure to come back to instruct at the program where I graduated 17 years prior.  I recommend our program and this field to any hardworking individual who is seeking a lucrative and rewarding career.

Graduate of the Automotive and auto body programs early 90’s

I have had several years’ experience working in a truck shop and then moved on to work with my father in his tree service business. This is where I also gained my experience working on all the equipment we had for the business. I have now been teaching here at ISU’s Diesel program as the Power Trains instructor. I love the opportunity to teach others how to love this field of expertise. I also hope to be able to share all that I have gained with my students to give them the opportunity to excel in the field of Diesel Mechanics.
