What was your greatest professional achievement or most notable project in the last 12 months? Jewett Construction launched an industry-leading internship program in the summer of 2022 and it was a massive success for men and women looking to break into the construction industry after college. We’re gearing up for another fantastic internship program this summer – if you’re interested message me on LinkedIn!

What tips or advice would you offer to other women who are considering entering the construction industry? Women are natural problem solvers. Use it to your advantage! Do you love a challenge? Then a career in construction would be perfect for you. Whether you’re in the field or meeting with other project stakeholders, careers in construction are very active and involve engaging in conversations to solve problems.
