What made you choose a career in heavy equipment?
After graduating from high school, I worked in a customer service job for two years. One morning, I woke up and asked myself why I was doing this. It was a typical 9 AM to 5 PM, five days a week, nonessential job, and I hated it. So, I just took a leap of faith, applied to a trades program dedicated to building women’s skills, and was accepted. Once that ended, I pursued enrolling in the SMS Equipment Pre-employment Apprenticeship Program for Heavy Equipment at Keyano College in Fort McMurray, AB. That’s when I discovered my passion for heavy equipment.
