Antonella Beck

Meet Antonella Beck.  Antonella is a member of the Valley Tank Testing (VTT) team.  She has been with VTT for 15 years and handles the HR, invoicing, and general admin duties at the Apollo Beach office. 

Antonella was born in Allentown, Pennsylvania and lived there until 2006 when she and her husband Scott, who also works for VTT, moved to Florida to start working with Brian and the VTT team.  She and Scott have been married 21 years and have 17-year-old twins, Sydney and Christian, who will be high school seniors this year.  She also has two dogs, Dipper, an Aussie-Goldendoodle and Baxter, a Maltese.

When not working, Antonella enjoys spending time with her family and seeing live theater.  Her favorite time of year is summer.  While she would have liked to have had a bigger family, having the twins has been very exciting and special!  Her favorite dessert is key lime pound cake, which sounds very yummy!!  Her favorite movie is West Side Story, and she thinks the remake may even be better than the original!

She says it’s because of her husband Scott that she works in our industry.
