Patricia Gallagher started in the construction industry at the age of 43, when she began Chicago’s first female electrical supply firm, Evergreen Supply in 1985.
Patt loved building the business. After raising 4 children, Evergreen Supply gave her the opportunity to do something for herself. Her ability to service others was probably the key to her success. There wasn’t a person she couldn’t talk to, and the more people she connected with, the happier she was.
Patricia’s enthusiasm for the industry, life, and her customers never waned. She is an authentic, tenacious woman who still doesn’t know the word “can’t.”
“Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success.” Buddha
