When TIG just clicks

摘要

Tajzi Thompson is the perfect example of the positive effects of high school career technical education. Like most 16-year-old high school sophomores, Thompson had no clue what he wanted to do with his life. That all changed the moment he picked up a TIG torch during a high school welding class. As soon as he laid his first bead, everything seemed to slip into focus. TIG welding was the right combination of challenging and addicting, and it captured his attention like nothing else had before. Now 25, Thompson has made a career as a TIG welder and is the proud owner of TZ Fabrication LLC in Norcross, Ga., specializing in precision TIG of stainless, aluminum, mild steel, and titanium.
