Zjanice Carter

Z. Carter

Zjanice Carter is the owner of Carter Contracting Co, a painting and drywall company based in Kalamazoo, MI. She joined KCDC in 2022 after hearing about the monthly meetup from another local contractor. After attending the first meeting, she knew that she had found her people and she’s been to every one since.

When she first started her company in 2021, she was not even aware of the benefit of the residential builders license but after connecting with other contractors and finding out about the Core60 course being offered, it started to line up with her vision. In 2024, she became the youngest “black girl builder” in the state of Michigan.

Zjanice plans to use her license to grow her company and support those who have supported her, namely the KCDC members and partners. She gives all glory to God and encourages the black and brown community to chase their purpose rather than a paycheck.
