Electrical Apprentice · Pell City, AL

Electrical apprentice at M&A Electric Company in Birmingham, Alabama, since July 2024. Started green on a large multi-family job, was one of the few people kept through layoffs, and stayed on through a company ownership transfer. Commercial work under a superintendent with more than 25 years in the trade. Skills come from that mentorship and from independent study, with lockout/tagout certification and a competent-person designation on site.
