Jacob Rocha spends his days working inside a warehouse surrounded by heavy machinery and wood, tucked in the Rocky Mountains.
âLearned the machines, worked my way up, everything just kind of fell in place,â he said.
He works at Basic Industries, where he helps make wood stakes for a variety of industries. But how he got here is its own story.
âMy initial charge was a burglary charge,â he said. âI was a low life, down at the bottom, drugs and stuff.â
