Meet David Bickel, '26 Applied Science in Welding Technology

"I dedicate this degree to my dear sister, Jane, who was enrolled in the KCC welding program with me but had to drop out in 2024. After being stricken with the effects of long COVID, she become too sick to continue. Every time I felt I would quit, I thought of her strength and it kept me going. She will be back when she's ready!"
