It is an excellent opportunity to network with like-minded professionals, build meaningful connections, and foster a supportive community that encourages the growth and advancement of women in AEC.
We are honored to welcome Senator Lola Smallwood-Cuevas, representing California’s 28th Senate District—one of the most diverse regions in Los Angeles— as the opening speaker for our ceremonies.
