"My company, Performance Contracting, Inc., has been involved with NIA for many years, and I personally have been active in NIA for over 15 years. The NIA experience has been invaluable for me and my involvement in the insulation industry. NIA provides something for everyone, regardless of a company’s size or location. From a safety, networking, relationships, education, and industry awareness perspective, NIA has something to assist you in your day-to-day business operations. The addition of NIA’s Education Center provides a great resource for training new employees and continuing education for your teams. In my opinion, the key to unlocking NIA’s potential is involvement. Before I became active in NIA, I did not fully understand and appreciate all that NIA has to offer for personal and business development. By attending Annual Conventions and Fall Summits or serving on a committee, the relationships you develop and the knowledge you gain about our industry are extremely beneficial."
