Congrats to RHS senior Brady Alexander, whose outstanding skill, dedication, and work ethic in the Electrical Technology program (and previously Building Construction) has earned him the honor of CATC Professional of the Month for April! From CATC: Brady Alexander, a senior from Richmond High School, is enrolled in the Electrical Technology program. Last year, he completed the Building Construction program. Brady has especially enjoyed the hands-on aspects of the programs at CATC, and he takes pride in the reward of seeing what he’s created come to life.
This year, Brady won the local SkillsUSA competition in Residential Wiring and went on to compete at the state level, where he earned a silver medal by placing second. The competition lasted five hours and evaluated participants on craftsmanship, technical fundamentals, safe work practices, and overall completeness. His task involved installing a panel with boxes and wiring switches and receptacles. Outside of school, Brady plays sports at Richmond High School. He was a member of the state champion soccer team and is currently in the midst of baseball season. In his free time, he enjoys building projects around the house and spending time outdoors hunting and fishing.
His instructor, Mr. Chip Eastman, shared, “From day one, Brady has shown a level of dedication, precision, and curiosity you don’t see often. Whether it’s wiring a panel or troubleshooting a complex circuit, he approaches every task with focus and professionalism. I have no doubt he’ll be a leader in this field one day.”
Brady is currently exploring his options and seeking the best opportunity to enter the workforce after graduating in June.
