About John
Meet John Gist
Master electrician. Your direct point of contact.
John Gist is a master electrician with 19 years of experience across residential, commercial, industrial, renewable-energy, and critical-infrastructure projects. He began his career as an apprentice in Grants Pass, Oregon, before becoming a journeyman with Brookings Electric, where his work included marinas, boatyards, hospitals, schools, and a wide range of residential and commercial projects.
John's experience grew to include water-infrastructure work with Power City Electric, off-grid solar and renewable-energy systems with Willpower Electric, and utility-scale solar installations with Conti Corporation and other contractors. After joining IBEW Local 48 in Portland, he worked on Madison High School, Intel's Mod3 project, semiconductor tool installations, special projects at Intel's Aloha campus, a chip-fabrication facility at ADI, and a water-treatment facility.
Today, John brings that large-scale technical experience and full-service perspective to Gist Electric. Serving Centennial and the greater Denver area, Gist Electric provides electrical services across residential, commercial, and industrial projects. Customers work directly with John from the first conversation through project completion, combining the capabilities of an experienced master electrician with the accountability and personal attention of an owner-operated business.
