Braden Teague’s advice to Gadsden City students is on track with what today’s experts are encouraging many local students to do, “Enroll in one of the career technical programs at Gadsden City to get shadowing hours to learn what you want to do with your college career.” After all, it worked for Braden. He was an active member of the health sciences program at Gadsden City. After graduating from GCHS, he received his nursing degree from Gadsden State Community College. By 21 years old, Braden had completed his master’s and is now in the final stages of becoming a nurse practitioner. Today, he works as an emergency department nurse, adjunct nursing instructor for Jacksonville State University, and as an interventional cardiology physician extender for North Alabama Cardiology.

If you know a successful Gadsden City alumnus who is thriving somewhere around the world, we would love to include them in the Our Titan Family is Going Places campaign.

They can upload a short video (less than two minutes) and a photo here. The video should be an introduction of themselves, a synopsis of what they do in their career, and the coolest work-related experience they’ve had so far.

Make sure the video is between :30 and 2 minutes. The photo should be of just them with a background that reflects what they are doing in their career. They should be sure to use their name (first and last) as the file name for the photo and the video.
Along with the photo and video, they’ll need to complete the short survey here.
