Capitol Fire Sprinkler

Meet Anthony Molina, Director of Operations. For over a decade, Anthony Molina has been the operational heartbeat of Capitol Fire Sprinkler, ensuring smooth project execution from scheduling to overseeing field installation work. Whether managing our in-house pipe fabrication shop or supporting, training, and leading our field mechanics, Anthony keeps things running like clockwork. But don’t be surprised if you catch him up on a ladder, swinging a wrench—he’s never afraid to get his hands dirty, just like in his days as one of our top foremen. A true New Yorker through and through, Anthony calls it like he sees it, especially when it comes to spotting a professional sprinkler installation versus, well, the wannabes! His passion for the business runs so deep, he’s brought his family into the fold—his son Anthony II is quickly rising as our shop foreman, and Elijah is one of our lead mechanics. Outside of work, Anthony is a big boxing fan and fancies himself a bit of a tequila aficionado.

Meet Thiara Gomez-Chalarca, Business Development Specialist. We’re thrilled to welcome Thiara Gomez-Chalarca as our new Business Development Specialist. With her unique experience and fresh perspective, Thiara is already making a positive impact on our sales strategies. Her background spans real estate, fashion, and fitness, and she quickly recognized the strong connection between fire protection and peace of mind—central to Capitol Fire Sprinkler’s mission. Thiara brings not only a diverse skill set and a can-do attitude but also a bachelor’s degree in Global Business from Fordham University’s Gabelli School of Business. Outside of work, you’ll find her staying active with spin classes or finding inspiration in motivational podcasts like Ryan Serhant’s “Big Money Energy.”

Meet Michael Ward, Design Engineer Manager. Michael “Mike” Ward has been a cornerstone of Capitol Fire Sprinkler for over 21 years, advancing from designing individual projects to overseeing all new and ongoing work. As the head of a six-engineer team, he ensures that every aspect of a project, from design to sprinkler installation, meets the highest standards. A native New Yorker with a B.A. in electrical engineering, Mike is also a dedicated father of four—three in college and one in high school. Outside of work, his passion for education and athletics shines through as he coaches both the men’s and women’s rowing teams at Manhattan University.

Thank you to the Mann Report for shedding light on the importance of discussing Lithium-Ion battery fires. It's crucial to raise awareness about these safety concerns to help prevent future incidents.

Meet Diana Martinez, Operations Coordinator. Multi-talented Diana Martinez, Capitol Fire Sprinkler’s Operations Coordinator, provides high quality service to clients, vendors and field operations teams, while concurrently managing inventory, schedules, and budgets. When she joined us 2016 as a DOB Expeditor, she often assisted our engineers with plans, as-builts and, occasionally, material submittals. After being promoted to Purchasing Manager in August 2022, Diana decided to follow her passion for design, including computer-based design, and returned to school where she earned a bachelor’s degree in architecture --- while still working full time! For all her hard work and accomplishments, Diana still manages to take time for traveling, working out at the gym, and engaging in a host of creative activities. Did we mention, she’s a successful multi-tasker?

Meet Leslie Tannenbaum, Capitol Fire Sprinkler’s dedicated Chief Financial Officer, whose guidance and insight have helped propel our Company’s continuous growth and success since 2011!
