My name is Deon Watson, and I am a positive guy who loves going after challenges and pushing my limits. I'm a positive guy chasing a carpentry apprenticeship in Pennsylvania, hopefully somewhere in Pittsburgh. I want to learn and become a skills Carpenter within 2 years then get the actual job or go to a Carpentry School.

My Goal

deonwatsonapple — 2025-05-25 20:21:11 UTC

I started carpentry in Westinghouse Public School in 9th Grade, creating at least 3 wood objects before coming to Online School. I'm aiming to join a Carpentry School or Apprenticeship in PA. I want a program that teaches me while I work and pays me as well.

Skills

I stay focused and keep a strong mentality under pressure. I'm great at doing multiple tasks at once. My positive and goofy attitude lifts up everyone around me and I shall continue doing so.

Interests

I love running every at least once a week to keep that mindset there, crushing a 13.1 Mile Half Marathon from the 2025 Dick's PGH Marathon! Building or just being active with my hands is my thing. Helping people and exploring new places also is exciting and fun.

I've been a working (mostly being a chef) at Honeygrow for 9 months, almost 10. I would say that I am "the" fastest on wok from my restaurant, not to brag or anything but the truth is the truth. I bring speed and great teamwork on shifts and get along well with everyone around me.

Work Experience: Grow Pittsburgh

Worked at Grow Pittsburgh for 2-3 months in 2023 when I was 16-17. Helped with our neighboring community gardens with other young folks, favorite vegetable to munch on was most definitely the cherry tomatoes. Learned a lot from this job itself such as teamwork and learning about verities of plants.

Work Experience: Side Jobs

Sold cold water bottles and lemonade with friends when I was younger in the very hot summer. It taught me the way to hustle and how kind others can be by giving more than how much the lemonade itself costs. While doing this I got better with chatting and became less nervous while engaging in conversations

Volunteer Experience: Elementary School

Volunteered in middle school at my old elementary school by doing subjects with them. Also helped the younger kids with fun creative school activities and learning at the same time. It was a good experience but man they have so much energy.

Volunteer Activities: Church Activities

I volunteer at my neighboring church, where I've gone since I was a baby. I helped while also being in the youth group, doing activities with the younger kids, setting up tables or tents during cookouts, food banks, or just activities. We also cleaned out abandoned homes to raise money for our trips, which is a win-win scenario.

Volunteer Experience: Helping the Elderly

Last summer I helped an elderly lady with her yard, such as getting mulch from Home Depot, hoeing weeds, and painting fences. My church and I also raised money to fix up other elderly neighbor's yards. It was nice doing that while raising money for our trips and making their homes even nicer.
