Episode 240: Darcy Tello and Med City Installation

Today we launch back into brand new interviews on the podcast, starting with the amazing Darcy Tello, owner of Med City Installation. Darcy worked as a caregiver in the healthcare field for many years before transitioning into a career in flooring installation. In April 2019, she started Med City Installation, a commercial flooring installation company, which is her very first business. Med City Installation is a total family affair. Darcy’s first hires were her fiance and brother. Now, her daughter is learning the flooring business as well. You won’t want to miss out on today’s podcast as this powerhouse business woman talks about how she started her company, why she’s certified as a woman and minority owned business and thinks others should consider it as well, her appreciation for the freedom she gets through running her own business, and much more.
