Misha Homara is the CEO of TriCore Panels, a vertically integrated architectural paneling company based in the San Francisco Bay Area. One of the youngest female CEOs in construction, she leads a 30+ person team and is reshaping what modern, people-centered leadership looks like in the industry. Misha never expected to find her career in construction. A temporary role helping her family’s business became a long-term calling, pushing her to learn the trade and the business from the ground up. With a deep commitment to culture, mentorship, and supporting people to be their most authentic self, she’s challenging outdated norms around leadership, retention, and workplace culture, proving that strong construction companies are built by supporting the people behind the work.
