2023 Women in Construction: Haley Sabino, Erland Construction

What made you interested in seeking a career in the AEC industry?

Growing up in a family that owned a construction company, I was always on the jobsites with my dad and papa; they took me everywhere with them. I had the opportunity to witness all the stages that go into spec homes and commercial buildings, such as foundations, framing, tile, finishes, etc. I loved the challenge of problem-solving and being able to see what goes into a finished product. Even with frequent road bumps, my dad and papa hurdled each one like champions. They’re my idols, and since then, I knew I wanted to follow in their footsteps.
