“If it’s your dream, make it happen. Because you don’t know if you don’t try. Put yourself out there.” – Jamie Greenway

Jamie has been a project manager with TexasBit for a year and a half, but she’s worked in the construction industry for 23 years. An open and welcoming culture have been fundamental to her experience as a woman in construction. Keep listening to hear her insight.

English transcription: I’m Jamie Greenway with TexasBit. I’m a Project Manager. I’ve been in this role for about a year-and-a-half. I started in August of 2021. I’ve been in the construction industry for 23 years. I started as a account payable clerk in 1999. I would think that the reason there’s not as many is they just don’t know that they can. I think that they probably put a limit on themselves. I would’ve never dreamed that I’d be in this position, but when I got the opportunity, I jumped on it and luckily, the progression has been that people are more accepting. They welcome you with open arms. They ask you questions. The honesty I have when I approach somebody of you know, “Hey, I’m new to this”, or, you know, “I’m just getting started”, they’re very open to that reception and they help me. I would say go for it. If it’s your dream, make it happen because you don’t know until you try. Put yourself out there.

Spanish transcription: Soy Jamie Greenway, de TexasBit. Soy directora de proyectos. He estado en este papel casi un año y medio. Empecé en agosto de 2021. He estado en la industria de la construcción durante 23 años. Empecé como contable en 1999. Creo que la razón por la que no hay es que no saben que pueden hacerlo. Creo que se ponen un límite a sí mismos. Nunca hubiera soñado que estaría en esta posición, pero cuando tuve la oportunidad, salté sobre ella y por suerte, la progresión ha sido que la gente es más tolerante. Te reciben con los brazos abiertos. Te hacen preguntas. La honestidad que tengo cuando me acerco a alguien como, “ey, soy nueva en esto” o “estoy empezando”, están muy abiertos a esa recepción y me ayudan. Yo diría que lo hagas. Si es tu sueño, hazlo realidad porque no lo sabes hasta que lo intentas. Lánzate.
