WELCOME TO THE SIXTH EDITION OF OUR ANNUAL SUPPLEMENT HONORING LA’S MOST INFLUENTIAL WOMEN in the construction, architecture and engineering fields. The building industry offers great opportunities for advancement for women. In fact, the industry has managed to avoid any gender pay gap, with women actually making about 1% more than men in average income.

There are a number of particularly stellar women construction professionals in the LA region and we’ve alphabetically listed some of the best of them here. Congratulations to the extraordinary, trailblazing women who made this list and thank you for your contributions to the Los Angeles economy … and skyline.

Methodology: The professionals featured in these pages did not pay to be included. Their pro les were drawn from nomination materials submitted to the Los Angeles Business Journal. Those selected for inclusion were reviewed by the editorial department and chosen based on a demonstration of impact made on the profession and on the Los Angeles community.
