Lucas Keomany

Fact: he studied at the University of Maryland.

Economics sophomore

“I’m 26. I’m married with two kids. And I’m a retired underwater welder. ... I’ve worked in the Gulf and up and down the coast. I even worked for NASA. ... I left underwater welding because it’s very dangerous. There’s a short life expectancy. I came back to school because I wanted something better for my kids and my family.”
