A week ago, I had the incredible opportunity to attend SiteOne Landscape Supply’s annual Women in the Green Industry Conference in Chicago. Not only did I have the chance to learn and network with some amazing women in the field, but I was also honored to serve as a panelist, sharing my experiences working in this industry. This event was truly eye-opening. It highlighted areas where I want to grow both personally and professionally, while also revealing that many other women in the industry are on similar paths, striving for the same growth and opportunities. The chance to engage with so many women from various sectors was inspiring, and I left with a renewed passion to move forward and continue learning from others. I’m deeply humbled by the connections I made during the conference and feel incredibly grateful for the shared experiences. I can’t wait to attend again next year! A special thanks to the ladies who were on the panel with me - Jennifer King, Stephanie Hertzog and Laura Shartle for keeping us all in line!
