Women in Construction Week Spotlight: Kelsey Bryant
Ames Construction is proud to celebrate the extraordinary women on our team during Women in Construction Week—and every day of the year!
As we celebrate WIC Week and Women’s History Month, we’ll shine a spotlight on some of the women who contribute to the present and future of Ames and the entire heavy civil and industrial construction industry.

→ What made you join the construction industry?
I grew up on a farm in Northeast Missouri, and I was always working outside and building things. I knew I wanted to pursue a career where I wasn’t stuck in the office 24/7, and construction seemed like the perfect fit.
→ What advice would you give women looking to join the construction industry?
My advice would be to pursue your passion and not be deterred by stereotypes or biases. Build a strong network, continuously enhance your skills, and be confident in your abilities.
→ What do you think the future holds for women in construction?
The sky is the limit for women in construction, with increasing opportunities for equal participation and recognition of their contributions to the industry.
