About Mark Davis
Mark Davis, Professor and Program Manager of the Automotive Engineering Technology Program at Seminole State College. Seminole State College is located in central Florida. In fact, it’s just about 15 minutes from me. And interestingly, I wasn’t aware of this program until a friend told me about it because her son is attending and absolutely loves it. I had the chance to take a tour of the state of the art facility last week and now I’m following up with a great conversation with Mark. Mark has a really interesting background including spending some time in the military and he’ll tell us more about that during the interview.
