KENNY PEREZ

President/Owner


Ken has been in the electrical field for more than 35 years with experience in both construction as well as electrical engineering design. For the last 20 years, he has been working on the engineering side of the industry with an emphasis in lighting design. His actual field experience has given him a tremendous edge over his competition in that he knows firsthand HOW an electrical system is installed, which he is then able to more clearly translate this to the design documents. This approach has enabled him to keep costly change orders down to a minimum for his client’s benefit. He has continued his knowledge in lighting fundamentals and electrical engineering by staying active with on-going classes in his field of expertise. These classes include Lighting Fundamentals through the IESNA and state sponsored classes for Energy Conservation Measures. Ken serves as Vice President of the local chapter of the IES in San Diego. Ken’s experience has caught the attention of many municipal agencies and has been called upon to offer expert advice on lighting ordinances as well as lighting design guide criteria. He also serves as a lighting judge for certain venues and teaches outdoor Lighting Fundamentals for the San Diego chapter of the IESNA.

Ken is a proud grandfather of 5. He is an active jazz musician, having played alto and soprano saxophone for more than 30 years. He also enjoys deep sea fishing and regularly enjoys the fruits of his labor.
