Vandre Spangenberg

My name is Vandré. 

As far as my memory serves me I've been working in the electrical industry as my step father is an electrician I started learning about it a very young age. 

There Is still little to no better feeling than, flipping the switch on a new installation and seeing everything coming to life.
