Latinas In Construction

Allegiant Electric’s Chief Operating Officer, Andrea Vigil, was recently amongst a group of writers who co-authored Latinas in Construction: Stories of Latina Excellence in the Construction Industry. Andrea’s chapter is titled “Constructing Dreams with Confidence and Courage,” and below is an exclusive excerpt from her chapter:

“From a very young age, I challenged the status quo. I was not a stranger to taking on tasks that would raise eyebrows from my classmates and the occasional condescending remark about girls not belonging in the workshop. One thing that remained a constant is my steadfastness.” To read Andrea’s entire chapter and to learn about inspiring women who contributed to the anthology, please visit https://latinasinconstructionseries.com/.
