CONSTRUCTION PROJECT MANAGER: Emily DeHaan

from Career Chat Hosted by Andrea LeBaron

Emily DeHaan has always had a love for beautiful homes. While initially planning to major in interior design and then architecture, Emily eventually settled on construction management and worked as an estimator in her first job after college. But when she started a family a few years later, Emily chose to step away and ended up taking a 20 year hiatus from her career. Now, with mostly grown children, Emily has returned as a project manager with custom home builders Jackson & Leroy. In this episode, we discuss the advantages and challenges of being a woman in construction, what she would have done differently if she could go back, and her advice for anyone interested in construction as a career. - Links: Jackson & Leroy--Overview - Jackson & LeRoy (jacksonandleroy.com) BYU Construction Management--The Program (byu.edu) Resources for Women in Construction--16 Best Resources for Women in Construction (capterra.com) - Connect with me on Instagram! @careerchatpod
