Hayden Lipscomb, of Lockhart, TX, is pursuing a certificate of completion in auto collision repair and is scheduled to graduate next spring. 

“I love it,” Lipscomb said. “It’s probably the best thing I’m good at.”

Lipscomb said he enjoys the real-world applications of his training at TSTC.

“It’s a lot of fun,” he said. “Every day I come to class and learn something new.” 

He said a can-do attitude goes a long way in the program. He added that doing homework and asking questions can help students succeed in the program.

After graduation, he wants to work at Tesla.

“I won’t have trouble finding a job because I came to TSTC,” Lipscomb said.
