Sorry, but we do not provide electrical services...
I founded Automation Electric with the vision of engaging in automation projects for the industry. I designed and programmed systems for machines to automate specific processes. I also created gadgets for industrial applications. During this period, I worked on various electrical systems, designing lighting for both residential and commercial projects, as well as network wiring for data and voice, sound systems, and the latest flat-screen TVs.
I am now trained to specify, program, and install home automation systems including Lutron's Radio RA2 and Homeworks QS, motorized shades, and Vantage Systems. Our offerings include all NEST products, sound systems, and home theaters.
I underwent electrician training in Switzerland via a four-year apprenticeship program. I successfully passed the state licensing exam as an electrical contractor in California in 1991.
I launched my business as RS Electric in 1991.
I partnered with Eli Sadi to form E & R Electric in 1995.
I served as the campus electrician at Mills College in Oakland, CA.
Now, I am dedicated to home automation, fully certified as a Lutron Residential System Provider, including the L3 level of design. I specialize in upgrading existing lighting control systems to the latest standards and integrating smartphone control, motorized shades, and temperature management.

We launched our company in 2021, as a cooperative owned by workers, dedicated to empowering women, immigrants, and people of color to achieve ownership in a company they support.

Each team member brings unique experiences that improve our support efforts, ultimately allowing us to better serve our community.

With over 20 years in construction, I wanted to launch my own company, starting small before taking on larger projects as a General Contractor.

Being a cooperative owned by workers, my fellow workers and I have aspired to build and run a business. Yet, there are numerous challenges to starting a business, and an individual cannot have all the solutions.

This motivated us to create our cooperative, so the co-owners among us can understand together what it takes to start and operate a business as a team.

I am deeply committed to my work. I find satisfaction in every aspect of my job.
