Elaine Kats, President

Hi, I'm Elaine. I immigrated to America as a child and grew up in the East New York projects. Life was sometimes hard, but I worked harder, funding most of my college education myself by holding full-time jobs. I believe if you set your mind on something and work hard, you can make anything happen.

Several years ago I accepted a job in the construction industry, which, I learned quickly, is heavily male-dominated. But I didn't accept it as a roadblock; I saw it as a challenge. There's no reason men need to dominate this industry!

After a few years my partners and I decided to launch Wallbreakers and try to shake things up. Wallbreakers is a construction company dedicated to empowering women like me break barriers and thrive in this male dominated industry.

When I'm not busy breaking down walls, you'll find me hanging out with my three kids. They're my biggest motivators and my greatest joy! Work/life balance is important to me, and there is no reason either should suffer.

Come join me on this exciting journey of empowerment and change. Be a part a team that can make a real difference in the lives of women everywhere.
