In Episode 4 of the HBA BuildCast, host Allyce Trapp interviews outgoing Board Chair Diane Baum, owner of Baum Environmental Group, a Bronze Industry Partner of the HBA. Diane and Allyce discuss the importance of advocacy and how the HBA helps further the efforts of the homebuilding industry on local, state, and national levels. Diane, a self-proclaimed “political nerd,” explains the inner workings of the environmental services world. If you catch her at the next Homebuilders Happy Hour with her Baum Squad, be sure to order her a Manhattan or a Pina Colada!
