Behind the Business: The Lee Company’s Karlye DeGenaro

Manufacturing

Karlye DeGenaro has been working as an automated machine operator with Westbrook-based manufacturer The Lee Company for more than a year.

She has always been attracted to hands-on work, and likes manufacturing because she can finish a day’s work and feel accomplished.

“What I love about Connecticut is the small town feel of where I live—my whole family’s here,” DeGenaro says.

“What would make Connecticut a better place to live is just the cost of living—if it was just down a little bit more, and maybe some more incentives for single moms like me.”
