Introduction I began my career in construction at around the age of fourteen, prior to graduating high school.

After graduating high school, from the fall of 2002 through the summer of 2007, I worked as a full-time electrician with a number of Staten Island contractors, those that standout is Bryur Electric, Catello Electric and TopShelf Electric. The responsibilities and tasks surrounding the installation of electrical circuits and devices in residential homes and commercial buildings, with 35% of my work being fire alarm repair and retrofit installations. Throughout this period, I dedicated much of my time to career development, attending training seminars and classes, which focused on the electrical trade.
