Luis Pineda

In March, 2001 Luis Pineda graduated from the ITT Technical Institute located in West Covina, CA. with an associate’s degree in Electronics Engineering Technology. Luis is now a technician for Spinitar Presentation Products. He is 26 years old and married with two children.

Luis tells us that he used to work in a warehouse driving a forklift. He says, “I had no future. I had to work two jobs to support my family.”

Luis’ brother-in-law graduated from ITT Tech about 11 years ago. He talked to Luis and got him interested in ITT Tech. Luis knew it would be hard, but he also knew he had a great support network.
“My parents were always there for me and I have always been there for them. Both my family and my wife’s family have been very supportive,” Luis explains.

“It was hard going back to school. Lots of the instructors go out of their way to help you. Other students were also very helpful.”


Alex Ledesma – Luis’ Dad
“Luis has always been a hard worker. I was very happy that he went back to school. You can’t do anything without an education.”


Bernice Ledesma – Luis’ Mother
“I am very proud of him. I give him a lot of credit. I never thought he would go to school and get a degree. I’m very proud.”

Luis tells us more…
“I have a job that I enjoy doing. I got this job by attending a job fair at the college. I started working for Spinitar three months prior to graduation. I can now spend my weekends with my family. We love to camp out.”

“I can now be an example to my kids and show them how you can make things better. Having a degree has helped better myself. Better job, better salary, better future. I will not work two jobs again ever!”
