He loves to fish, hike and hunt from time to time. He did not know what or where he wanted to teach at first, but he knew one thing for sure and that is to come back to his hometown and live there.

The reason that Mr. Dinse was interested in teaching advanced woodworking and construction technology is because he loves activities that he can do physically and he believes that they are valuable. He says, “It teaches a whole different skill set than those basic concepts that you get in English or math and being able to start with nothing and end up with something.” You can find him at G-210.
