Here is a little background on me:

I have lived in Tompkins County for over 30 years. Before becoming an electrician, I worked for nearly 8 years with Ithaca Neighborhood Housing Services as their Mini-Repair coordinator, doing small handyman jobs for low income seniors.

I started learning the electrical trade by working with Danny Tourance and Tommy Blecher, two local independent (and recently retired) electricians. I then worked with Sparks Electric Company for over 10 years. There I gained a wealth of experience doing electrical installations and repairs.

I have been self-employed as a residential electrician since May 2017, working throughout Tompkins County and beyond.

I am licensed to work in the City of Ithaca.

When not doing electrical work, I enjoy hiking in this beautiful region; gardening; contra dancing; potluck with friends; folk sings; concerts on the Arts Quad in the summer; visiting the gorges; and many other very special local activities. On occasion, I even get around to working on my 1830's country home in the town of Dryden.

This is a wonderful area to live in.
