Jenna and Kathleen share their experiences navigating a historically male-dominated field, the importance of visibility and mentorship, and how intentional recruiting, training, and culture-building can attract more women into UVM careers. They also highlight how conversations around inclusion are shifting, why early outreach matters, and how contractors, utilities, and leaders can create environments where women feel seen, supported, and empowered.
