Starting In Construction
For as long as she can recall, she has always loved working with her hands. She did well in school, but she did not like it and couldn’t imagine voluntarily staying in school for four more years. So, she started looking for a job. She wanted a job she could stay in for years to come, and she knew exactly what she wanted to do. Unfortunately, she heard ‘No’ quite a few times before she finally heard ‘Yes.’
She is now a full-time employee of Clevenger Family Enterprise and has dozens of stories about the days she spent on various construction sites.
She also enjoys sharing stories of encounters she has with her fellow employees that leave them surprised, since she isn’t the only one adjusting to a new situation.
While most of the scenarios she encounters are to be expected, she says there are a few she didn’t expect that have come about since she is the only woman on any of the crews.
Clevenger Enterprise is a Christian family-owned company that has had its share of ups and downs but consistently delivers work they can be proud of.
