The idea for Peak Electric was born from a small town in rural Tennessee, where I grew up surrounded by big skies and bigger dreams. I didn’t have a father in the picture, and that came with its challenges. But with every setback came a lesson, and with every wrong turn, a course correction. Thanks to the strength and love of my mom, who never gave up on me, I found my way forward — and a spark of entrepreneurship took hold early on.

At 20, I realized I needed a change. I joined the Navy, looking for something more — a sense of purpose, direction, and maybe a little adventure. I served aboard a submarine, deep under the surface, where I learned the value of discipline, integrity, and teamwork. Those lessons stuck with me.

After the Navy, I came to Maine and enrolled at Southern Maine Community College, diving into both plumbing and electrical programs. I ended up working as an electrician, and it didn’t take long before I knew I’d found what I was meant to do. I wasn’t just learning a trade — I was building something real.
