Mr. Garritt Kooiker To All Instructors


I’m Garritt, a passionate individual with a diverse background in the arts and skilled trades field. My journey began by earning a BFA (Bachelor of Fine Arts) degree from the Pennsylvania College of Art and Design. 

For over a decade I honed my creative skills and developed a keen eye for aesthetics working professionally in the printmaking industry. After attending technical school, where I earned a degree in welding, I moved into the custom sign and metal fabrication realm. 

With the help of my wife, Kristin, I decided to temporarily leave the workforce and stay home to raise our son. We are proud homeschool parents and we feel enriched each and every day.
