“Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be. Be one.”
Sam the self-proclaimed loudest introvert you will ever meet. He is an Eagle Scout and by default also loves the outdoors. When he is not scanning electrical panels with IR cameras or troubleshooting your electrical systems, you can find him camping, fishing, or shooting (but he seems to be better with electrical systems than fish).
Scott Garman

“If you don't have time to do it right, when will you have time to do it over?“
Scott is a Master Electrician with a slightly different background. He once completed a degree in youth ministry, which comes in useful more than you might imagine in this industry. His degree, experience playing and coaching sports, and extensive electrical training give Scott the tools he needs to do keep customers’ projects moving forward.
Joel Chartrand
Project Coordinator“Try not to become a man of success. Rather become a man of value.”
Joel has a background in Electrical Engineering. In his spare time, he enjoys fiddling with BAS systems and computer networks. Joel’s fun fact of the day: Sugar is the only word in the English language where “su” makes a “sh” sound. At least, he’s pretty sure that’s correct!

“The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.”
LeeAnn has experience working with fire alarm and prevention systems. In her spare time, LeeAnn enjoys hiking, game night with friends, and spending time with her nieces. If your trivia answer involves movie quotes or facts about horror movies, LeeAnn is your go to person.

Jake is a journeyman electrician by trade and has spent years perfecting his craft. He enjoys spending time with his son playing basketball or going on hikes in our national forests. Jakes dream would be to have a cage match with John Cena.
