About Me
Hi, I’m Val, and my journey in the countertop industry began back in 2004 as a small countertop fabricator. For over a decade, I worked hands-on in my family-owned fabrication shop, specializing in crafting and installing durable, high-quality countertops. In 2012, I transitioned from fabrication to a new role—leveraging my industry expertise to guide homeowners, designers, and contractors in selecting the best countertop solutions.
