Job Title: Owner and master electrician

Location: Mechanicville, Md.

Age: 29

Years on the Job: 11

Throughout his childhood, Luis Llamas, Jr. watched his father work many jobs, but he was the most interested in his career as an electrician. His father wanted him to have an office job, but he said working with his hands interested him from a young age.

After graduating from the electrical trade program at North Point High School, he joined the electrician’s union, completed the five-year apprenticeship program, and became a journeyman electrician. He then became certified as a full-time electrical contractor and licensed master electrician.

“I would not be where I am today if it wasn’t for the training and guidance I received from other electricians. It helped me to be persistent and see that there is a solution to every problem.”

As a master electrician and electrical business owner, he ensures the projects are on schedule, meets with potential new clients, and, when required, works out in the field. His company is currently working with local small business establishments like restaurants, cafes, hair salons, barbershops, and grocery stores.

To get to the point where he is today, he would like to thank everyone who has helped him to become a better electrician and person.

“I’d like to thank the Lord Jesus Christ; my mother, Maria, for supporting me throughout my ventures; and my late father, Luis Llamas, Sr., who instilled a hard work ethic in me and encouraged to me to apply to the electrical program,” he said. “I’d also like to thank Keith Gascon, my high school electrical teacher/mentor, and my beautiful wife, Amber. I wouldn’t be where I am at, if it wasn’t for her being with me, encouraging me, and loving me.”
