I’m 25 and from London.

Previously, I worked for Waitrose and Partners for seven years and studied Economics, Politics and Public Policy at Goldsmiths University. I then took the plunge and moved into the construction industry. I now wish I’d made the leap sooner!

After doubting that I could work in this industry due to my gender, I decided to challenge myself and follow in my grandfather’s footsteps; he has worked in the industry for over 30 years and I’ve always admired him personally and professionally - he’s my superhero! I want to prove to myself and other women that girls can and do work in this industry.

There are some challenges to working in construction. Some are physical - there are instances where I’m simply not tall enough to measure something, for example. But the main one for me is that being in a male-dominated environment generally, I do miss girly chats!

However, if you take the same plunge that I did, you won’t look back or regret it. Be enthusiastic, have a good sense of humour and just be honest.

Outside of work, I enjoy making music, going to the gym and cars. Here’s a fun fact, too: I have over 60 pairs of trainers, aiming to exceed 100 pairs!
