Though Gabe Krebs spends his days working as a technician at a Caterpillar dealership, the job is more than just fixing heavy machinery — it also serves as his training for an upcoming global competition.
Krebs, a 21-year-old graduate of Dakota County Technical College in Minnesota, has less than a year left before he heads to Shanghai for the “Olympics of trade schools,” also known as the WorldSkills competition.
