At Grand Haven High School, students enjoy working with the latest CAD releases and modern facilities that make for rewarding experiences to prepare for careers relating to engineering, architecture, and design. The focus is both in theory and in practice as students work individually and collaboratively on projects and assignments that are rigorous and relevant to the area of study leading to positive results in and out of the classroom.

 

In the Architectural Design classes, students use AutoCAD® to design working drawings. Focus is on design. Students create working drawings, presentation drawings, and model construction.

 

There are three pre-engineering courses: Drafting and Design, Engineering Design, and CAD Applications. Drafting and Design offers students an introduction to the fundamentals of technical drawing and valuable AutoCAD® training. It is strongly recommended and required in some cases that students sign up for this course prior to other courses in the department. Engineering Design takes students a step further into 3D CAD Solid Modeling. CAD Applications offers students the opportunities for advanced CAD modeling using Pro/ENGINEER® Wildfire and prototype design using the Dimension 3D printer.

 

In the Product Design class students create a variety of industrial design projects that highlight their understanding of the fundamentals of design, problem solving, and team building skills. These projects are truly unique and exciting to complete.

I graduated from Western Michigan University in 2000 with a BS in Drafting Education. In 2005, I completed my MS in Career and Technical Education from Western Michigan University. I have been living and working in the Tri-cities for just over 9 years. My career path was not a direct one. Initially I planned on becoming an engineer, attending Michigan Technological University my freshman year. Shortly afterward my major changed to architecture and then to secondary education. In 2006 I married Andrea, also a teacher. We have a chocolate lab, Callee. We feel fortunate to live and work in such a great area. I am extremely driven. I believe that the path is just as important as the destination. I have a passion for design and its applications. I am confident in my abilities. When not working I find myself skiing and playing indoor soccer in the winter, playing golf, basketball, tennis, hiking, and camping in the summer, traveling when affordable, and spending quality time with family and friends whenever possible.
