WECA Arizona recently had the honor of supporting Janet and Lisette Amaya -- sisters and WECA Arizona Commercial Electrical apprentices, employed by WECA Arizona Member Contractor Corbins -- while they spoke at the Phoenix NAWIC chapter meeting at Grand Canyon University on Oct. 22.

Janet and Lisette both came to Corbins and WECA through Grand Canyon University's Pre-Apprenticeship program, stating that they both saw Grand Canyon University's program as a great opportunity to establish electrical industry careers.

Attendees were impressed by Janet and Lisette's stories, and even more so by their enterprising yet humble attitudes. Janet and Lisette both noted that they are proud of the work they do, and enjoy reaping the rewards that come from their hard work. Janet and Lisette enjoy sharing their stories with women audiences in a bid to encourage other women to seek opportunities in the electrical industry.

WECA and Corbins are proud of Janet and Lisette's accomplishments, and eagerly look forward to their continuing contributions to Arizona's electrical industry -- which includes welcoming the future women they will likely inspire to pursue electrical industry careers.
