“I am a Navy veteran and single parent working to provide a good life for my family. I took the Floorhand Roustabout program back in 2013, and since completion of the program I have been able to improve the quality of life for my daughter and myself. I was able to remain an active participant, even during the downturn. Taking this program was the best and most rewarding decision I ever made in my career.” Kristin Blissit
