With a love story for the profession, André is much more than one of Neoenergy's symbolic collaborators, he is also a character with a life story that serves as an inspiration.

Five years and six months ago, the story of André Luís Jesus Vieira, an electrician in the area of energy inspection and loss control at the Bahian distribution company in Salvador, became part of the history of Neoenergia Coelba. The second son of a family of four siblings, André, 32 years old, is the only one whose work is driven by energy. But he doesn't want it to stop there, no: his goal is to inspire and make the next — or the next — family member tell this story of connection with energy in their own way and as beautiful and passionate as his.

With a love story for the profession, André is much more than one of the symbolic collaborators of our organization - the electrician - he is also a character with a life story that serves as an inspiration.

Created only by his mother, a figure on which he focused, in addition to maternal obligations, fatherly obligations, André presents her as the reason for everything he is and does to this day. “She is a father and mother and everything I do is to help her,” the electrician proudly declares.

Perhaps that is where so much inspiration and strength come from that André shows, in addition to the wide smile that exudes joy, as we can see printed on the faces of Mrs. Edna and her son during the interview.
And those who see so much joy in these two can't imagine how strong they had to be. Three years ago, Mrs. Edna (59) was diagnosed with stomach cancer, and it was her son and daughter-in-law — Taíse, the great companion whom André made a point of fondly reminding during the story — that this mother found support to continue.
