I currently sit on 3 committees for the Polymeric Exterior Products Association that includes: Marketing Committee, Workforce Development Management Committee, and the Sustainability Committee.
PEPA is the new name for the former Vinyl Siding Institute, representing a broader range of durable, low-maintenance home exterior materials like siding, trim, decking, and fencing, aiming to promote these polymeric products and unite manufacturers, builders, and suppliers to ensure quality and expand the industry
To help better understand the product and see the market from the installers eyes, I went through VSI installer certification which helped me learn details of the product that have been helpful in the way we communicate to our customers.
I am currently a sitting on the board of directors for the Metal Roofing Alliance. MRA is a non-profit organization that educates homeowners, contractors, and builders about the benefits (durability, energy efficiency, beauty) of residential metal roofing, supporting the industry through research, resources, and marketing to increase its market share
