GovCon Giants Success Stories 013: Maria Martinez and Rochelle Bell Bonty: The amazing comeback story of a woman thriving in the mechanical field

Today's guest is Rockstar Rochelle Bonty of Missouri. Rochelle is a mother of 6 who started out working customer service jobs which she hated. From there she got a job with the union as a laborer and then moved up to carpenter. After being laid off from that job she moved to another company and worked in HVAC. But this time around she knew that it could happen again and so she started learning what it took to create her own business.

Please do not tune out as I promise this will be one of the best comeback stories you hear for the rest of 2021. Her desire manifested into one of her senior managers showing her the paperwork necessary to start her business and become a women owned minority supplier. She completed all the paperwork and got her business certified as a license mechanical contractor.

As luck and fate would have it, that second company informed her that she was going to be laid off. She informed one of the executives at the company that she in fact had all the paperwork and was a registered minority supplier. Once they learned she had a company they then offered her newly formed corporation a 6-figure subcontract to perform the work under her company name.

I don't want to spoil any more of the story because it gets better from there. I just want you to tune in and make sure to show Rochelle some love in the comments because she chose herself the second time around. Hope you enjoy this episode of Making a Giant with Rockstar Rochelle and Maria Martinez.
