Caught at Cersaie 2026!

WOW! One of the things I enjoy most about Cersaie is taking pictures and reconnecting with friends from all over the world. But this picture is a little extra special.

I was so excited to see my longtime friend Carol Law, whom I don’t think I’ve seen in six or seven years! Carol and I worked together at Daltile for many years, and she was truly one of the hardest working and smartest people I had the privilege of working with but even more importantly, she and her husband Alberto became great friends.

Six or seven years may have passed, but our friendship certainly hasn’t diminished. Carol, it was truly a blessing seeing you again. I loved catching up and can’t wait until the next time!
