Founders and co-owners, Jason Kraxberger and Scott Karlson, first started as co-workers, at a family-owned electrical company based in Canby, Oregon.

During their time working alongside each other, they realized they shared a similar work ethic, attention to detail and quality of service.

They continued their careers by moving on to a large electrical company serving the greater Willamette Valley where their skill set, and business expertise refined and grew, which sparked the decision to start Live Electric.

  • Jason was born and raised in Canby, Oregon. He grew up working on the family farm and helping his father with his construction business. He loved the process of building and using his hands to create things. Jason has been working in the construction industry since 2006. His resume of work includes multiple residential projects to 1000 square feet commercial spaces. Jason still lives in Canby with his wife and two kids.

  • Scott was born in Santa Clara, CA and has lived majority of his life in Wilsonville, Oregon. Growing up, he discovered his detail oriented and competitive mentality through sports, primarily golf. It was not long after college that a friend of his father offered him a position at his electrical shop in 2015, where he met Jason. He quickly realized that he had found an opportunity where he would succeed in a work environment that supported his strengths. Scott still lives in the area with his wife and two kids.
