Alumni News:

A 2016 graduate of PTHS, Nate Durham went on to pursue a career in Construction Management. He attended ISU, and graduated in 2021 upon graduation he began his career as a Project Coordinator at Opperman construction. While enrolled in the LACC Engineering program, Nate was certified in multiple CAD programs and became very proficient at the architecture program known as Revit where he learned to design floor plans, elevations, sections views and roof plans. In addition to Revit, one of the most important skills he learned was how to design a house on a drafting table where he learned about scaled measurements. This is a very valuable skill to utilize in architecture due to the detail and accuracy it takes to create a structure and the ability to read and comprehend large scale measurements. During a round table last school year Nate represented Opperman’s and reinforced how this was a skill that he uses to this day.
