What was your path to a career in construction? Growing up, I was on jobsites with my dad, so I have been in construction all my life.
What do you like most about working in construction? You never know what you will be dealing with day to day. It keeps you on your toes.
This year’s theme is “Keys to the Future.” What is the key to the future of construction in Kentucky? Being the dreamer that sees a future or a change in a community and seeing it though.
If you were to give young women (high schoolers) advice about beginning a career in construction, what would you say? If you think about construction, you think of a male dominated field, it’s not. If you have a dream of being in construction, go for it. Don’t let anyone hold you back.
