Christine Hogan Warehouse Manager Stewart EFI, LLC Thomaston, CT
“Manufacturing is an exciting career, never a dull moment. Being part of a team, working in the final stage of a manufacturing business, you work with all departments including outside vendors. This business is always moving and changing daily. It is both challenging and rewarding to make ‘it’ happen for a customer and your team that has worked so hard.”
Heidi Hostetter
Vice President Faustson Tool Arvada, CO
“It’s fun! It’s rewarding! And it makes a difference! Every time I look at an F-35 aircraft I can see the parts that I helped manufacture. Every time I look at a home dialysis machine, I know that my parts are in there. When our soldiers are at war I know that in some small way I was able to help protect them and, ultimately, the citizens of this country. I love that as a woman in manufacturing I have found my place in this big world and have come to realize I can have it all. So can you!”
Nichole Lawrence
QA Inspector II Quality Industries Lavergne, TN
“Starting out a career in manufacturing as a woman can be almost intimidating, because at the end of the day, manufacturing is still a highly male-dominated field. This is unlikely to change until people can see that it’s not just manual labor, and there are so many different skill sets that you can learn. Multiple opportunities exist for women in manufacturing.”
