2023 Women in Construction: Lynn Palmer, Jewett Construction

Lynn Palmer
HR Manager
Jewett Construction 

 

What was your greatest professional achievement or most notable project in the last 12 months? My greatest professional accomplishment this past year was being awarded The President’s Award at Jewett Construction. I was honored and it was truly one of the best experiences I can recall in my professional career. Being recognized and having my contributions acknowledged in that way was amazing. I strive to provide an exceptional experience for our employees; it’s my top priority. It feels incredible to be appreciated and recognized for your work. I work with an amazing team and being supported is uplifting and engaging. 

What tips or advice would you offer to other women who are considering entering the construction industry? My advice for women entering the construction industry would be to work hard, have an open and curious mind and don’t be afraid to ask questions or ask for help. Always be honest with yourself and others. It’s OK not to know something… but work to find the answer. This shows strength, grit and determination and builds trust.
