A big company's inability to competitively bid government projects opened the door to the dream of Kimberly Willmott '86.
While the established company was winding down its activities in Willmott's area, she dreamed of hiring these people back, giving them great jobs, building a broad customer base and persevering to develop a self-sustaining company. Her dream is well on its way.
Today she has hired several of her former co-workers, many in rural East Texas without satisfying job alternatives. Pentecom has a wide customer base and has grown by over 82 percent per year over the last two years. The company will celebrate its tenth anniversary in March of 2007 showing that they are here to stay. Willmott is happy watching her dream unfold and if given a chance, she'd gladly do it again. She loves the freedom to set company direction and challenges of bringing in new business and starting new projects.
Looking ahead, she dreams of expanding the company's services and continued growth.
