If you weren't able to make it to our Workforce Development Symposium in December, then you missed one heck of a great panel discussion. Luiza Barros, QC Manager for Texas Materials – A CRH Company, and Women of Asphalt Education Subcommittee Chair, moderates the discussion among four asphalt industry veterans. Nominated to participate, our panelists operate heavy equipment, make critical decisions, and carry the weight of responsibility for quality outcomes. They are also women. Learn what it's like to be a woman in the field—the guts, the glory, and the very real opportunities for upward mobility and a secure future.
