Favorite thing about Fireclay Tile: Our creativity and our kindness.
I grew up in Morgan Hill, but have lived in Aromas for the last 5 years. I love being able to work in the great community that I live in! Prior to Fireclay, I went to college locally and worked for a cloud based bookkeeping firm. I also went to cosmetology school and did hair for the last 10 years. When I'm not at Fireclay, I love spending time with my husband and my corgi. We enjoy hiking, biking, and doing anything outdoors!
Favorite thing about Fireclay: I love the positive energy that I feel from the people I work with and the company as a whole. I love working for a company that believes in using business as a force for good and I'm proud to be a part of it.
