Samy Leisenring, a senior bridge engineer in RETTEW’s Transportation group, recently lent her voice to a podcast discussion about women in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) fields. Kara Newhouse, a reporter for LNP, is hosting the weekly podcast focused on local women working in STEM fields, highlighting their career path and knowledge. Listen to the podcast here. 

Samy shared her thoughts on why she became an engineer, some interesting details about designing a bridge, an equality challenge she faced early in her career, and an inspiring story from history.

RETTEW’s people are our biggest asset, and we love to hear them share stories about their passion for their work. We believe it’s important to support women in the workplace and raise the next generation of engineers to know they can change the world!
