Maykel Gonzalez - MMG Drywall

from The Drywall Podcast · host Nick Harmon

Why would anyone switch from a prominent position to be a drywaller?  Well, Maykel did just that.  Better known on Instagram as mayktapetech, Maykel started out as an attorney in Cuba to impress his father.  He managed to escape to Toronto but that wasn't the end of his challenges.  He ended up homeless before when he noticed another man speaking Spanish and desperately asked him for help.  That man took Maykel to a church where he took up residence until he could find a way into the construction industry.  Maykel did what it took to make his life amazing and he made some lifelong friends along the way.  He's as loyal as they come and Loves the brand Tape-Tech.  He's the quintessential brand ambassador and you'll see why on this, the 153rd, episode of The Drywall Podcast.   This episode of The Drywall Podcast is brought to you by Muddskip.  Find out more by visiting their website at www.muddskip.com
