From the shop floor to the classroom. Yesenia Martinez came to Midland College looking for a skill that could help her build a better future for her family. She found welding.

She earned her associate degree from MC, built a career in the industry and, years later, returned to where it all started. Today, she leads the Midland College Welding program as department chair, helping the next generation of welders build their own futures.

And she hasn’t forgotten what got her here. “Just never quitting. That is how you get through.”
