About us.

Sunrise Electric is a local small business run by husband-and-wife team Ely and Lee. We have lived in the West for decades, and after years of visiting and loving New Mexico, we finally relocated to Albuquerque in 2024. Since then, we have been enjoying all the opportunities for family adventure in the shadow of the Sandias.

One of our favorite things about New Mexico is how diversity is treated as a strength, and that is especially noticeable in the variety of holidays and traditions on display. After experiencing the uniquely bright winter seasons in the Land of Enchantment, and marveling at the amount of holiday displays, we knew that our New Mexico neighbors would love the service we offer.
