Fifth president of @DurhamTech Proud husband and father. Educator. Avid hiker, reader, sports fan.


Please join us in welcoming our new Central Teaching & Learning Hub Co-Director, Dr. Jason Moldoff of @durhamtech!



I’m pleased to secure $620,000 in federal funds for @DurhamTech’s affordable housing initiative which will expand housing access in Durham. We need more affordable housing and I'm proud to support this initiative that will meet the needs of local students and community members.



Today, our Esthetics students proudly offered free treatments to 911 dispatchers and first responders as a small thank you for their incredible service & dedication. As we pause to reflect on the tragic events of 9/11 may we never forget the lives lost and the heroes who emerged.




Congratulations to the newest graduates of the Durham Tech 911 Academy! 👏 This program is designed to prepare individuals to work in an Emergency 911 Telecommunications Center. They will play an important role in keeping our community safe. #DoGreatThings
