"Electrical Components" with Nicole Dankovich

In this episode of the Orange County Power Players Podcast, Danny Flores chats with Nicole Dankovich, West Regional Sales Manager at Alpatronic, about her impressive career in the electrical industry. Starting at just 19 years old with Westinghouse, Nicole carved out a path in a technical, male-dominated field—all while raising her son as a single mom and later earning her business management degree.

Nicole takes us through her journey: from early jobs in Pittsburgh to driving across the country with two cats and a Trans Am, and her rise through top companies like Eaton, Siemens, Square D, ABB, and now Alpatronic. She talks about her hands-on learning, the impact of formal and on-the-job training, the challenges of online education, and navigating the evolving landscape of the EV charging market.

This episode is packed with wisdom about persistence, adaptability, and staying driven in any environment.
