Hello From Pink


I stumbled across this website the other day and got hooked. My husband and I are Class A Contractors. We specialize in painting and drywall however we are expanding in all trades from the ground up. I am presently working on getting my advanced builders and real estate licsense. From there I will work two years as an agent and then go for my brokers. My husband is the whiz in the field. He has been at it for over 30 years. I do all the office work and certifications. At the moment I'm not allowed on the field as my husband says its not the place for me but I think he'll come around he shelters me too much. I love the building industry. I started all this in 7th grade shop where I made a co2 car and won first place over all the boys I was hooked. I loved making things out of wood like arts and crafts to me. Those boys made fun of me calling me tomboy and so on all through highschool but if they could see me now.
