Rita grew up in the electrical and mechanical business working with her grandfather's business since she was in High School. It was instilled at a young age to work in this industry you must attend a trade school, start at the bottom, learn the knowledge and respect the craft. She worked outside in the field, warehouse and as a parts runner until she could earn the ability to join the office. She truly came from the school of hard knocks. She enrolled in TECO and attended night school to gain theory and basic electrical knowledge that would help her in the industry. She attended VCC where she obtained a SHRM certification for Human Resources and business and accounting by 2004. In 2006 she was promoted to Asst. Vice President and handling the majority of the in-house operations as well as the accounting, large national accounts and contract negotiation. In 2015 opportunities arose that led Maryland Electric the ability to open a second office and run statewide in FL.
Since 2016 Rita has managed her in-house responsibilities, project management, sales and marketing. Her passion has been public relations and promoting the "best trade to the customer and the best trade to the apprentice and the future of our trade". As a woman in the trade, we face diversity every day. I put on my boots, hardhat, raincoat and manage a job if that is what my role is that day. The next day it may be heels, dress or suit and laptop.
