Meet Landry Smith

A career in HVAC was always in Landry Smith’s blood.

“My dad had an HVAC company,” he said. “I’ve always been involved in it since I was young and I plan to do it until I’m old. I love to work with my hands and get stuff done. An office job was never going to be for me. I like to be out there and see new things every day.”

Though the Alto native was familiar with the field, Smith knew pursuing a formal degree would jumpstart his career and put him ahead of the game. After visiting with Blinn faculty and seeing the facilities at Texas A&M-RELLIS, he knew an Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree in HVAC would set him up for success.
