APPRENTICE PROFILE
Mark gallegos
International Brotherhood of
Electrical Workers Local 401
"IT's a brotherhood, we all got each other's backs."
Second-year electrician apprentice Mark Gallegos says a state-of-the-art education was a big part of his decision to join the apprenticeship program, and so was the sense of brotherhood. "You always have someone watching out for you," he says. "I think that's the real important thing when you're out in a construction area."
