A 12 Year-Old's Unconventional Path Sparky Life

    • Society & Culture

Viola Vargas, is 12 years old and already a trailblazer.  She started her journey with the trades when she was a toddler and growing up she always loved working with tools with her dad. Viola started with cutting wires, but today she helps her dad with HVAC projects.  Not only is she skilled in HVAC but she is an athlete as well, taekwondo, soccer, and track and field. Viola hopes to continue in HVAC as she gets older. She is a proud member of the non for profit Women Pioneers In Unity since August 2023. At such a young age, she has already developed a keen interest in HVAC systems, a field that many might consider unconventional for someone her age. 
Sparky Life is on a mission to expose students to the vast career opportunities in the skilled trades. With hand-selected industry leaders, we're sparking direct conversations and building networks for the future craftsmen and women of America.
