“Kristen is a relatively new addition to EW Howell, but has over 20 years of experience in the construction industry. Her knowledge and experience are an asset to the firm. She is growth-oriented in this leadership position, enhancing and improving our procedures and processes of Risk Management. Kristen is most befitting of the NYREJ Women in Construction 2024 recognition.” - Dan Williams, President at EW Howell Co., LLC.

What do you like best about being a woman in the AEC industry? I love shattering stereotypes and challenging expectations to show that gender doesn’t define ability. Being a beacon of change in a male-dominated field is empowering, and I’m grateful for the women before me who broke barriers and cleared paths. Together, we’re building a stronger, more inclusive future for construction.
