Ladies Who Lead – Michele Romero
What is the most rewarding thing about what you do?
When I go and speak with a homeowner, I get to come up with ideas with them on what they are looking for. Then we come up with a way to make their vision come to life. What is most rewarding is when the project is finished and we get to show the homeowner their finished project.
What about this industry appealed to you?
What appealed to me was the excitement we get when we have the opportunity to transform a home and make it more beautiful.
What did you find most challenging as you worked your way up in the industry?
What I found most challenging working my way up was how tough the industry made it for me as a woman to run a remodeling company. There were many, many people along the way who just couldn't accept that a woman was running an exterior remodeling company. It just wasn't accepted back in 2003 when I stepped into the industry. I was always told I wouldn't make it as a woman and that this was a man's job. But I proved them wrong. I am still here and plan to stay in business until I retire.
How do you unwind after a stressful day?
I come home, Thank God for another day, get a cup of hot chocolate or tea, cook dinner and spend the rest of the night with my son and husband watching our favorite shows together. I do my best to leave the stress at the office when I close the doors for the day.
What is something you cannot live without?
What I can't live without is God. He is my rock and my strength. I could never be where I am today if it was not for God's blessings.
