Have you ever wondered what data engineers do or how to become one? Or maybe you’ve wanted to drive sustainable policies in the environmental space but you don’t have the “right” background.
In this series, we’re featuring women working across a number of roles where women are underrepresented within the water, energy, and environment sectors. Our panelists will share insights with our members about working within each of these roles across the water, energy, and environment sectors, and will share highlights about their day-to-day work as well as provide general advice for women who are interested in working in the various roles being discussed.
June 2 - Women Entrepreneurs
June 9 - Women in Data
June 16 - Women in Policy
June 23 - Women in Engineering & Construction (this event)
Registration includes access to all four events in the series. Recordings will be distributed after each event.

Alison Flynn is Sustainability Manager at XL Construction in Northern California. She began her career in commercial construction management but shifted into the sustainable development field 5 years ago when she seized the opportunity to manage the sustainability scope of work on a large Bay Area campus development project pursuing both LEED Platinum and the Living Building Challenge Materials Petal. Her success on that project, particularly her wins surrounding zero construction waste efforts, exposed her ability to collaborate and strategize with project teams to deliver complex buildings without compromising sustainability goals. Her objective is always to connect project teams to the “why” of green building. When all team members, from the field to the office, subscribe to the belief that sustainable construction practices have a greater impact than just a “plaque on a wall”, she feels she has done her job successfully.
