The Story Behind Skelly Build
In this episode, Sean and Diana share the real story behind Skelly Build — how it started, what it took to grow it, and what this podcast will offer moving forward. From stepping into a male-dominated industry with limited resources, to building trusted subcontractor relationships and wearing every hat imaginable, Diana shares what it felt like to start from scratch. Sean opens up about why he joined the company, what operations and finance looked like behind the scenes, and how their partnership strengthened the business as it scaled.
