Nashoba Tech student Earns Gold Medal at National Event
Peter Zaferacopoulos, of Littleton, won a gold medal at the SkillsUSA National Competition, held June 19-23 in Atlanta, Georgia.
Peter, known as “PJ” around school, won the top spot in the nation in Cosmetology. He is a rising senior in the Cosmetology program at Nashoba Tech.
PJ earned his spot in the Nationals by winning a gold medal in the SkillsUSA State Conference held earlier in the spring.
At the Nationals, PJ had to take a written exam, work hands-on in three areas of hairstyling — color, design and cut — and show his skills in personal communication by taking a mock customer phone call.
PJ is just the second Nashoba Tech student to earn gold at the SkillsUSA National Competition. Jason Gendron, of Dracut, became the first-ever in 2019, earning gold in Information Technology Services.
