Key Quotes:
-
“No day is the same…which is something that I love so much. I can be in sales all day…or traveling around to different sites..or learning payroll and all the behind the scenes stuff. I tell people I do what needs to be done.”

“Everywhere I go, I realize that I’m not Ann-Marie Chillcut anymore-I’m New Home Building Stores. There are not a lot of young people in Columbus (Mississippi). People see me as a future leader of the city.”
-
“Working with men is a huge adjustment-for them. These men have never worked with a woman before. They don’t know if you’re going to be a prissy person or if you’re going to work hard. The men that I now work with are becoming some of my greatest friends.”
