We have great events planned.  You should have received the email with all the registrations links this week.  The focus of Women in Construction (WIC) Week is to highlight women as a viable component of the construction industry. WIC Week also provides an occasion for NAWIC’s thousands of members across the country to raise awareness of the opportunities available for women in the construction industry and to emphasize the growing role of women in the industry. It is also a time for local chapters to give back to their communities. Visit our event page!

Hometown:  Kingston Springs (originally from Maryland)

What do you love most about the construction industry and how long have you been in it? I love that it’s something different every day.  I’ve been a project manager going on 4 years. But in my previous facility role, managed all of the construction projects in multiple locations in different states. I am grateful to work at a great company which helps grow my industry knowledge and always has my back.  Every day is a new beginning.

What is your favorite thing to do in your free time? Spend time with my family. I am a single mom of 2 teenage girls. I am blessed to be at a company that believes that family matters.  

How did you hear about NAWIC and why did you join?  A colleague took me as a guest to a meeting.  I was intrigued with the concept of an all-woman organization in a mostly all male industry.

What advice would you give a new member or prospective member?  Join!!   This is a tough industry for women. We need all the support we can get!

Order today- Extended for Valentine's Day! 

These awesome packages benefit the NAWIC Nashville Scholarship Fund!

We have raised $1400.  Help us raise more for some lucky college student to further their education in construction.  The price is $70.
