“I love my team. It really is like a family environment where we have each other’s backs. Even though transit has been male-dominated in the past, I’m seeing more women choosing to work in transit each day. I’m seeing more women in positions that have been held by men in the past, so that’s really inspiring. Women are making moves!”
