Don Allen
Biography: In 2001 I started my career for plumbing and mechanical trades. In 2005 I reserved my journeyman's card in plumbing and mechanical. Then in 2011 I started with the city of Rexburg working with the water and doing plumbing inspection soon after I became the plumbing and mechanical inspector. Soon after I started with the city of Rexburg I started teaching the 1st year plumbing class and after teaching for a couple of years, I had the opportunity to teach the 2nd year plumbing class. I began teaching with CEI's WTCE center so I can pass on my knowledge and share my skills with the next generation of plumbers and tradesmen.
