It's a lot of work, it's a lot of commitment
It's not just an eight to five stay late help the customer get their car out the door, fixed the right way
I'm Anthony Adrian, and I'm a GM world-class technician
Not only is he a General Motors world-class technician. He is the youngest world-class technician in the country.
Anthony came to us as a senior.
I was kind of lost in high school
I didn't know what I wanted to do.
I was like you know what I'll try Automotive.
I was always into it as a kid. I always watched my dad work on cars.
Once he got into the program
he got hooked. You could see his passion and how excited he was about working in the industry
and he thrived because of it.
It was a different kind of learning experience. It wasn't just doing paperwork. It was more hands-on.
He really shined with us so much to the point that
we connected him here with Grand Prize because we knew even after one year
that we could trust that he would make us look good in the industry.
Makes us incredibly proud to see our students thrive and to stay here in Rockland County,
to help fuel industry here, as well in the economy.
BOCES and the teachers at BOCES prepared me by
pretty much showing me that, you know
anything that's worth doing is worth doing the right way.
Don't just blow it out the door and get it done. Just get it done right so that
the customer's happy and in the end you'll be happy.
You know it gives you that sense of pride that you've accomplished something and you accomplished it the right way.
