In honor of Women In Construction (WIC) Week, I spoke with Doreen Bartoldus, who is the current President of the National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC). She’s been working in construction for over 45 years, and is currently a manager of projects at Jacobs Engineering in Hampton Bays, New York.
