Armando Gomez
萝莉研究所 Student Spotlight (2020)
Armando Gomez, 18, learned about the LAUNCH apprenticeship program while attending
Corona High School.
鈥淚 was in the engineering program at Corona High for four years and when I learned
about the apprenticeship program at 萝莉研究所, I decided to take advantage of
it,鈥 said Gomez. 鈥淚t鈥檚 the best thing I鈥檝e done to date.鈥
Gomez, a first generation college student, was recently hired at Brenner Fiedler as
an apprentice where he is helping assemble pumps and wiring medical machinery. This
allows him to learn the basics of wiring and electrical work while making a livable
wage. Gomez鈥檚 long-term goal is to become an engineer. He finds joy in building and
is grateful that the LAUNCH program allows him the opportunity to learn, earn, and
work towards his ultimate career goal.
鈥淭he apprenticeship program helped me get to this step,鈥 said Gomez. 鈥淚 recommend
anyone interested in this model to enroll because it is a great opportunity to explore
different options while getting paid.鈥
