Christina Perez: Building Trades Student

Christina is a student who loves learning and working in the building trades. Her openness to the career was due to the "normalizing" of the career by her father from a young age, the relevance of the program to her interests, and the supportive classroom environment that made learning engaging. The teacher also empowered her by supporting her in teaching others. Her experiences from watching her father made her a natural leader. Thanks to a lot of factors, Christina is resilient to bullying and misinformation and has a great career ahead of her.
