Tile is art -- and at Crest Tile and Mosaic, we treat it as such. From beginning to end, we provide our clients with beautiful spaces through experience and professionalism.
After spending five years as a commercial installer, I moved into residential and have not looked back. I enjoy the projects that require attention to detail, and custom showers are a great example of this. After attending the Artisans Revolution in Tile (A.R.T.) training in Milwaukee in 2023, I have a different view of tile as a finish. It is truly an artisan trade, and my work reflects that. Every project requires some aspect of custom work, and we strive to provide our customers' needs. I am hoping to sell and install a few custom mosaic inlays in 2024, thanks to the A.R.T. training.
Professional development is a major part of my business model. Since 2022, I have been a member of the National Tile Contractors Association (NTCA) and it was been a huge benefit for me and my business. I am currently the Brand Ambassador for the NTCA in my area, hoping to "educate and elevate" other contractors in my area. I have also been chosen as an assistant trainer for this years A.R.T. training in Milwaukee. The national tile community has been great to me, and the NTCA is a major part in that. I look forward to growing, on both a personal and business level, with the networks I have made in the past years.
