During the early years, Lee Ann and DCI started the Distribution of Decorative Concrete Products where she quickly developed a network of local contractors - at the same time obtaining an international presence shipping product worldwide. As a result, Bob and Lee Ann were invited to teach courses as well as work on projects in countries such as: Canada, England, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, France, China as well as islands in the Caribbean. As a result, many friendships were developed in these countries that still continue today.A few of the friendships developed during this period with Luca Seminati, Maurizio Pontello and John Anderson of Ideal work lead us on a journey to create an innovative stamped concrete tool line unlike any of its kind. The name was derived from a famous Italian Architect named Andrea Palladio which was the inspiration for our new line of stamping tools called “Paladiano, Wonders of the World” by Bob Harris. The five of us traveled to many historical sites including Athens, Greece; The Island of Cyprus; Paris, France; Yorkshire, England; collecting textures from authentic stones in these regions. Once we obtained these textures, we were able to use them to create the most realistic patterns of their time.Lee Ann was instrumental in the Bob Harris Guide Collection with over 75,000 books and DVDs sold worldwide. She also helped to produce numerous videos for Concrete Network and other trade affiliations that were posted to social media with millions of viewers.Lee Ann’s newest venture includes becoming an acting Board Member of the Women’s Association of Concrete Professionals with five other industry leading women.
