Meet 10 influential PHCP women
Women continue to impact male-dominated plumbing industry.
While stereotypes and traditional gender roles have long perpetuated the notion that plumbing is a man's job, women are challenging these norms and reshaping the landscape of the industry.
As we celebrate Women’s History Month and Women in Construction Week, Plumbing & Mechanical is shining the spotlight on 10 influential women who are leading the plumbing industry to great success.
Each year, Plumbing & Mechanical asks industry associations and leadership groups to submit nominations for the 10 Influential PHCP Women list. Nominations are also open via social media and by reaching out to Editorial Director Natalie Forster directly.
From tradeswomen to engineers, these women are challenging stereotypes and demonstrating that gender is not a determinant of skill or capability in this industry.
This year’s honorees are Kelly Castrogiovanni, Beth Dobkin, Skylar Halpin, Karen Hill, Linda Hudek, Barbara Lynch, Hailey Mick, Mary Phelps, Nicole Urizzo, Catherine Filibes-Massih.
Representation is more important than ever, and each of the women below shares the most rewarding aspects of a career in the trades as well as misconceptions they wish people understood about the plumbing industry.
