THE MISSION OF MY BUSINESS: To
take care of our employees, clients and the
community that we serve.
YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED THAT: We've
been in business 73 years – that's longer than
Interstate 75 has been in Macon! Six percent
of our employees are second-generation,
and we have 25 repeat clients that have been
doing business with us for anywhere from 10
to 70 plus years.
I AM EXCITED ABOU T: The growth and
revitalization of downtown Macon. I'm also
excited about the partnerships we have
with organizations that are working for the
betterment of our region.
THE MOST GRATIFYING PART OF MY
JOB: Helping our customers bring their
projects to life and the satisfaction of knowing
we have a hand in changing the building
landscape here and across the state.
HOW I DEFINE SUCCESS: One
accomplishment at a time.
I HOPE MORE WOMEN WILL: Step
outside of their norm to follow their passion
and that we see more women joining the
construction industry.
MY ADVICE FOR YOUNGER WOMEN
WHO WANT TO START A BUSINESS:
Make connections and network in the
community to help make you more aware of
the resources available to you.
THE BEST BUSINESS ADVICE I EVER
RECEIVED: To believe in yourself and
never underestimate your skills, talents and
determination to succeed.
HOW WOMEN COULD BETTER
SUPPORT EACH OTHER: Find a group
of diverse peers who will listen to you and
challenge you to grow.
