Newport News Shipbuilding’s We Are Shipbuilders series spotlights shipbuilders from across the company.

“I get to build ships for the Navy. Someday, one of my grandkids might be on one of these ships. My grandad used to work here back when he was younger. My dad and my other grandad worked at shipyards, so it’s kind of a family thing. One of my grandads did the same work I do. The other was a locksmith and engineer. My son is young, but I’m trying to get him in here.”
