Meet the amazing team at Custom Exteriors

Niki works in Operations and Outreach for Custom Exteriors. She taps the experience and skills from decades in the construction industry to write our informative blog on everything from choosing the right paint to ladder safety to roof maintenance. Her construction knowledge is trusted by many reputable sources, including U.S. News & World Report, Better Homes and Gardens, and Realtor.com, to name a few.

Niki’s professional career began at the young age of 16. She was a licensed electrician less than five years later. For over a decade, she honed her skills, tackling everything her electrical career sent her way. She and Mike began remodeling/flipping homes in their 20s, where her construction skills were built by hands-on experience time and time again. 

Here’s where things took a turn that some may describe as “an interesting choice.” With no prior experience, she is taking on the Custom Exteriors website redesign and all the social media and creating the face of Custom Exteriors. This has proven easier than expected because Custom Exteriors has one of the best teams around. Skilled professionals who are also real people. Content isn’t that hard with such a great environment and group of people. 

She is married to Custom Exteriors founder Mike O’Brien, and they have one beautiful daughter and three dogs. In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with her husband and daughter, traveling, watching Dateline, listening to Dateline, Keith Morrison, and so on. She also likes sunburning her legs only below her capri pants line and trying random experiments with our social media. This generally results in someone wearing a costume.
