Hunter Owens plays soccer for Broken Arrow High School and the Tulsa Soccer Club. The goalkeeper enjoys playing as much soccer as possible, but he also enjoys setting himself up for a bright future in business. Owens is enrolled at Tulsa Tech where he is taking courses in Production Printing.
“I am taking Production Printing. I chose this course because last year I took Digital Graphics, and design is something I like to do,” said Owens.
Deciding to attend classes as Tulsa Tech was an easy decision for Owens. With owning his own business as a future goal, Owens knew he wanted to learn skills that would help him reach that goal. Tulsa Tech was the answer while he was attending school at Broken Arrow.
“Tulsa Tech was right for me because it is a lot different from a regular high school.
The environment is completely different and a lot more fun,” said Owens. “My future plans include going to college and getting my business degree, and eventually own my own business. Tulsa Tech has given me the tools I need to pass my tests and get certified.”
As a student at Tulsa Tech, Owens said he has enjoyed the many different opportunities the school has provided. Including meeting new people and getting to know the staff.
“I have enjoyed all of the opportunities to do real work for people in the classroom setting, as well as all of the people around me supporting me. The kids and staff are super friendly and helpful,” said Owens.
Owens said anyone looking into Tulsa Tech should take the time to learn all of the courses which are available and find something that interests them.
“I would tell other kids to enjoy it. It’s a fun program and you learn lots of new things every day. The instructors are there to help if you have any questions, “said Owens.
Away from school, Owens enjoys spending time with family and playing soccer. He said his parents have been a major part of his life and a big influence on him.
“My parents have been a huge influence in my life by helping support me and teaching me to work hard for what I want in life,” said Owens.
