Master Lic # A-13693





Born on November 8, 1966 in Rockingham, VT, I was raised in that same small rural town with my mother, father and my older sister. After high school, in 1984, I began my career working in the electrical field as an apprentice for Baker Shepard Electrical Service in Brattleboro, VT. As I began to study the electrical trade under my mentor Wayne Shepard, I immediately learned attention to detail, efficiency, and neatness in my craft. I have Wayne to thank for giving me a great start in the trade. In 1987 I moved to Massachusetts to expand my opportunities in the electrical Field. I worked full time and went to school in Springfield, MA for my formal training to become a licensed electrician. By June of 1989 I had successfully completed all the requirements for the journeyman's Licensure in the State of Massachusetts. I started my business, RW Odette Electrical Service, in 1989. I completed my schooling and earned my Masters electricians license in 1990. That same year I relocated the business to Hatfield, MA, where I continue to live and operate my business today. In 2004 we built a new shop for the business at the Hatfield location.
