Sherman, Texas | December 3, 2010 | Stella M. Grant, Owner and Chief Executive Officer of Frankie’s Welding & Ornamental Iron, has been recognized by Elite American Executives for demonstrating dedication, leadership and excellence in operations management.

As the chief executive officer of Frankie’s Welding & Ornamental Iron, Ms. Grant is focused on business operations and the ownership aspect of the business. She became involved in the industry as a result of her late husband Frankie’s involvement in the field. When he passed away five years ago, she took over control of the company, with a determination to stay afloat and continue growing. In order to focus on the details involved in the welding and fencing industry, she relies on the help of Thomas Shipp, who took on Frankie’s role as the industry expert.

Frankie’s Welding & Ornamental Iron provides fencing and iron welding services to its customers. The company deals primarily with projects in Texas; although sometimes they have the product built on-site and then shipped elsewhere, as is the case with their work for the Texas Housing Authority. As the owner and CEO of her own company, Ms. Grant enjoys the opportunity to build her own schedule around her personal life, as she enjoys watching NASCAR, creating scrapbooks, caring for her pets, working on computers and shopping.

Ms. Grant her success to her upbringing, caring nature and the support she received from her husband. In 2007, she received the Employee of the Month Award for her dedication and hard work. She was featured in Cambridge Who’s Who® Publishing’s Top 101 Industry Experts book in 2009 and was also honored by Cambridge Who’s Who® Publishing in 2008 as the Outstanding VIP of the Year.
