Hard work is rewarded in the marine industry
Washington Maritime Careers is presented by the NW Center of Excellence for Marine Manufacturing & Technology. The Center, which is part of Skagit Valley College, focuses on strengthening the connections between education and the industry to meet the technical workforce needs of the Washington State maritime industry. Jesse is a foreman at Silverback Marine where he builds aluminum boats. He's proud of the sense of accomplishment that comes from hard work and making progress each day.
“You get to leave every day and see your progress. One day you get ready to leave and see an entire boat behind you. You can see it and you’re proud of what you did.”
