Despite my many years of attending the International Builders’ Show, this year, it felt like I was seeing everything through fresh eyes. What was the catalyst for this new perspective?

What I learned in the meetings, and the inspiring people I met there, sparked a new outlook and momentum for me that prevailed throughout the entire event.
The NAHB committee meetings offer great insight into what’s happening in the industry at a national level. I learned about new NAHB initiatives aimed at helping the people they serve. I learned about policies that are coming down the pipeline—from labor laws, to environmental issues. I witnessed the passion the NAHB has for representing the professionals in the home building industry and the people we serve. And I witnessed the passion the home builders and suppliers have for moving this industry forward.
