We talked about how Jen and her husband started their company, and how it's grown. From home flips to a design-build contractor in a growth phaze. Jen's a licensed real estate agent and is also spearheading an effort to educate women who might not realize their opportunities in construction. We cover a lot, and it was very interesting to hear from this new LIBI member. And yes, I forced in a "Pinky and The Brain" sound bite because I think I'm so funny. Haha! Hope you enjoy the episode!
