I am responsible for Interior and exterior product sales at O&G’s Danbury Masonry Showroom. In my role, I assist homeowners with bathroom design projects and work with architects and contractors on specialty items for fabrication.
How did you get started in the construction industry?
Before working for O&G, I spent five years as an assistant in an architect’s office. But I have always been more interested in being in the field and working with construction materials. When the opportunity to work at an O&G Showroom became available, I knew it was the right fit.

Sometimes it can be challenging to find the perfect product that meets the architect’s unique vision. But we have great resources at O&G and can typically find a good fit.
