Liam was inspired to go into the trade by his father, who was also an electrician.

“I guess just followed in his footsteps,” he said.

He said his favourite part of his job was getting to work around close friends and constantly learn new aspects of electrical work, though he said it was too hard to pick a favourite memory.
