Summary
After 15 years in NYC's Local 3 Electricians Union, Mike Lelia made the kind of move most people only talk about. In this episode, he breaks down how he walked away from union stability and a guaranteed paycheck to bet on himself and build Lelia Electric Corp. from the ground up. Six years later, Mike leads his electrical firm proudly serving Westchester & Fairfield counties commercial, residential, and industrial sectors, proving what can happen when skill, grit, and risk all meet at the same junction!
