The Woodward Alumni Hall of Fame Association

The son of a Woodward graduate and the first of seven siblings to graduate from WHS, David Pakulski, or “Paku” as he was known during his time at Woodward, credits much of his success in life to the vocational education he received at WHS. Educators such as Ted Csizek made a lifelong impact on David by teaching him to learn with his head and his hands.

 

Those skills served him well as he moved from post-secondary education into his career in the manufacturing and supply chain industry. After graduation, David earned his associate's degree from Owens Community College, his bachelor’s degree from Bowling Green State University, and his master's degree from the University of Toledo.

He has also served as a board member of the Polish American Community of
