🔧 Alumni Connection: Maria Zammitti ’20 – Plumbing & Heating

Breaking barriers and building her future, Maria Zammitti found her path in Whittier Tech’s Plumbing & Heating program—a trade she hadn’t originally envisioned for herself. Today, as a Journeyman Plumber with Local 12 (JC Higgins), Maria continues to prove that confidence, skill, and perseverance open doors to incredible opportunities.

“Whittier has helped me get to where I am today by giving me the chance to get out of my comfort zone and try a trade I wouldn’t normally picture myself in.”

Her story reflects the strength of Whittier’s hands-on learning and the courage it takes to step into something new.

Whittier Tech Dental Assisting instructors Ms. Deveau and Ms. Costa spent their Saturday giving back in a remarkable way.

Both instructors volunteered at Massachusetts’ first Mission of Mercy event, a large volunteer-run clinic hosted by the Massachusetts Dental Society that provides free dental care to community members who may not otherwise have access. From fillings and extractions to root canals and oral health education, hundreds of patients received care grounded in compassion and teamwork.

Ms. Deveau and Ms. Costa shared that it was inspiring to work alongside dental professionals and students from across the state to support healthier smiles for all.

Moments like these reflect the Whittier Way… serving the community with skill, heart, and purpose.
