Eileen David

This St. Theresa’s graduate stands out as a female entrepreneur who developed her summer job passion into a successful business. At just 24 years old, Eileen David owns and operates a successful painting company called Georgian Bay Painters Inc.

As a female in the skilled trades, she was determined to carve her own path as an entrepreneur. Eileen launched her company while at Niagara college for sport management. Today, her small but mighty all-female team serves clients across Simcoe County. Her crew paints new and custom homes, helps with renovations, and also works for local contractors.

Eileen’s quality work and client recommendations have launched her business far past her expectations. Recently, she was featured on the American-based podcast Paint Like A Girl, which highlights female painters around the world.

She isn’t prepared to rest on her laurels - plans are already being made to expand her business with a second team of painters.
