I’m Matt Rozeski, President & CEO of Penguin Pools.
After college (which I attended for four years but never graduated from), I launched a cable TV contracting company, where we specialized in door-to-door sales and installed digital cable and high-speed internet services for residential customers across Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Iowa.
In 2004, I founded Penguin Pools out of my home with nothing more than a desire to make a living and work outdoors. What I didn’t anticipate was how deeply I would fall in love with the industry and the lasting impact it would have on my life.
The construction process and the transformation of our customers’ backyards quickly became my passion. Building pools is more than just a job—it’s part of who I am. We don’t just install pools; we create lasting memories and traditions for families and friends. It’s not just about filling a hole with water—it’s about enhancing lives.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of meeting incredible people and learning from a great mentor (NY Yoda) who guided me in the right direction. I’ve served on the Latham Advisory Board and Builders Council, held an officer position with the Midwest PHTA chapter, and traveled across the U.S. to train and assist other builders while doing what I love.
I also owe a great deal to my wife, who is my rock. She keeps me grounded, and focused, and is my best friend, supporting me every step of the way.
