How a love for fixing cars led to a second-chance career

Student Stories

Michael Moton has always enjoyed fixing things. Despite holding a bachelor’s degree in economics and having a diverse career, his true calling came later in life. After graduating from Gramling State University in Louisiana, Michael worked various jobs, including a favorite at an automotive plant in Belleville, Michigan. However, the COVID-19 pandemic led to his layoff, and he found himself working for the state of Michigan. Although the job offered stability and the ability to work from home, Michael was still unfulfilled.
