ABOUT ME

My name is Tabatha L. Gomillia. I was born and raised in the “The Show Me” state aka “The Lou”—St. Louis, Missouri. I have an associate degree and a bachelor’s degree from Ranken Technical College in Construction Design and Management, and I proudly served 5 years 9 months and 27 days in the United States Navy as an electrician. After being honorably discharged, I was accepted into the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local One. I worked as a commercial electrician for IBEW Local One for 17 years. Later I went on to expand my career as an electrician with St. Louis County Government where I am now an Electrical Inspector, with 33 years of experience in the trade.

I am passionate about safeguarding the construction projects of my community by enforcing the minimum requirements of the National Electrical Code (NEC). I find my expertise and experience beneficial while collaborating with electrical contractors, enabling their success in the completion of projects. I love mentoring and helping electrical contractors figure out what code articles apply to their unique projects.

My hobbies are continuous education throughout the year and attending sporting events. I love LEARNING anything new, the UFL St. Louis Battlehawks, and my all-time favorite – “The St. Louis Cardinals.” I also enjoy spending time with my family and traveling around the world with them.

I count it a privilege to offer my electrical experience and skills to listeners and callers by answering code questions and encouraging those questions during this new adventure—Ask the Lady Electrical Inspector podcast.
