🌸 Our next Hard Hat Mom Spotlight is Jennifer Landau, President of Landau Building Company! Jen embodies the definition of being a working mom in the industry. Starting as a co-op student at Landau in 1999, Jen has worked her way up through various roles (project engineer, estimator, project manager, and vice president) before recently becoming president. 💪 

Jen has a daughter at home and strives to be a voice for other women in the industry: “In construction not every decision comes with all the information. Trust your experience, ask the right questions, and move forward with confidence.” 

Thank you Jen for leading by example and making the construction industry a better place! ✨

🌸 Our next Hard Hat Mom Spotlight is Kyra Sarver of TEDCO Construction Corporation! 🌸 

If you have been to any industry event, odds are that you have bumped into Kyra! She takes her role as VP of Client Relations to the next level - always finding the time to stop into an event, engage in meaningful conversations, and create real relationships! ✨ 

Kyra shows the same kind of enthusiasm at home with her daughter, Goldie, and said this when asked about the balance of work and being an involved mom at home: 
“Rather than thinking of it as “balancing” work and home life, I prefer a more integrated, harmonious approach—being open with colleagues and clients while recognizing that we all have priorities beyond work. At the same time, I believe strongly in setting boundaries and being intentional with my time. I make it a point to dedicate certain evenings each week to my daughter, because being present for those moments is just as important as showing up professionally. (So if you’re planning an event, Tuesdays are already spoken for 😊)”

Thank you Kyra for your commitment to our industry and your family!

🌸Join us in celebrating our first hard hat mom spotlight, Angela Tignanelli, GSP, Safety Director at Fazio Mechanical Services, Inc. | FMS Construction, Inc. 👷‍♀️

Over the last 10 years in the construction industry, Angela’s journey has extended far beyond the jobsite. When asked how she balances career and family, she shared:
“Balancing work and family means knowing when to be fully present in each role. You don’t have to choose between being dedicated at work and present at home. You can be both –“ ✨

Thank you Angela for your commitment to our industry and your family!
