NDP Celebrates Women in Construction Week

To celebrate Women in Construction Week, which takes place during the first full week in March every year, NDP's Engineering classes were visited by several members of The Whiting-Turner Contracting Company to discuss career pathways in construction management and the many projects on which they have worked. Students also had the chance to take part in activities that focused on project management, including budgeting and communications skills.

Special thanks to Mrs. Mary Agnes Sheridan, Director of STEAM at NDP, our guest speakers, and all those at Whiting-Turner who made this week possible—many of whom share a special connection with NDP as alumnae or parents:

Kelly Garrity ’05, Project Manager 
Marissa Oeste ’05, Project Manager 
Michelle Stanley ’14, Project Manager  
Abby Barbara ’16, Assistant Project Manager 
Emma Blanchard ’16, Assistant Project Manager 
Kellie Montgomery, P ’24, ’27, Vice President

Additionally, Megan Williams '24, Lacey Toth '25, and Vic Pellechia, Upper Level Principal, were featured in Whiting-Turner's 2024 Women in Construction Week Introduction Video.
