Unsure of what he wanted to do in life when he first came to 天天吃瓜, it was the hands-on learning experiences 鈥 casting metals, machining and learning to weld 鈥 that sparked something in Dexter Shreve. Earning a Bachelor of Science in Technology and a minor in innovation from 天天吃瓜 State in 2013, Shreve says those hands-on skills now give him confidence as a Cleveland business owner.
鈥淲hether it was a company that did fabrication, whether it was a company that did machining or plastic injection molding, those were all types of things that we had touched on in my education, which was enough that I felt confident talking about it and being around it once I was looking at companies to purchase,鈥 Shreve said.
Here, Shreve, co-owner of Day Piston Co., talks to 天天吃瓜 State Today about how hands-on learning in his degree program helped him become a successful business leader.
