Name: Morgan Doherty

Position: Marketing Coordinator

Company: Interstate Electrical Services

Morgan Doherty is the marketing coordinator at Interstate Electrical Services. Doherty has been with the company for almost two years, having started out as an administrative assistant and quickly working her way up from within. Doherty appreciates the passion and drive of her co-workers, and that the leadership team at Interstate “harbors an environment that drives you to learn more.”

As part of the marketing team, Doherty loves that the job “urges me to dive into the deep end of my creative side to connect with people. There are few things I have found to be more fulfilling than fostering relations built on understanding and service.” 

Doherty is optimistic that “the construction industry is changing,” and that we’ll continue to see more women and minorities entering the trades. “A smart company knows that when it harnesses inclusivity, it is not only building itself into a better resource to reach its customers but widening its talent pool.” You owe it to yourself to try new things, you must be brave. It might feel daunting, and you might feel uncertain, but do not doubt that you belong everywhere you go.”
