In 2021, while still in high school, I stepped onto a construction site for the very first time. The work was hard, tedious, and physically demanding but within the grit, I discovered something unexpected: a love for building.
What many saw as labor, I saw as possibility.

That moment didn’t just shape my career goals... it sparked a mission. As I looked around, I noticed how rare it was to see other women in the field. Often, I was the only one. And while that could have been discouraging, it became my motivation. I didn’t just want to belong in construction. I wanted to change it.

I went on to create Women Can Engineer, a platform dedicated to empowering women in STEM and challenging the idea that certain spaces aren’t meant for them. Through real conversations, mentorship stories, and inclusive representation, Women Can Engineer helps women and girls feel seen, supported, and capable... whether in the classroom, the lab, or on a job-site.

Now as a Construction Management student, I have combined my academic journey with my advocacy. I launched G.L.O.W. (Girls Leading Our World) to bring hands-on STEM programming directly into elementary schools, making science fun, accessible, and confidence building for young girls at the age when self-belief begins to form.

My mission is simple: to help every girl believe she belongs not only in the room, but at the head of the table.
