Emily Lampert

What was your greatest professional achievement or most notable project in the last 12 months? In this past year I passed my final ARE exam and became a licensed architect in Massachusetts. It’s been years in the making (education, grad school, intern hours, and testing) and its my greatest professional achievement. I’m incredibly proud of the person I’ve become during this journey.

When you’re not busy, what is your go to book or podcast to help you unwind? Lately I’ve been working to educate myself in all things personal finance. When I’m busy I love listening to a couple episodes of my favorite finance podcasts, “Financial Feminist” and “Girls That Invest.”

What tips or advice would you offer to other women who are considering entering the construction industry?
