March may be coming to a close, but the recognition and celebration of women will never be confined to a single month.

Throughout March, we honor International Women’s Month and recognize Women in Construction Week—two powerful reminders of the impact women continue to make across industries, from business and leadership to technology and the built environment. But the truth is, this impact doesn’t end on March 31st. Women are consistently shaping, building, innovating, and leading every single day.

As a woman—and a woman in construction—this month gave me a moment to pause and reflect on two milestones I’m especially proud of:
• Closing a significant chapter by selling the final homes in our first new construction development
• Writing a foreword for Jose Vicente Castro’s book, “My Journey through the Houston Airports Project” – a book intended to serve as a technical reference and conceptual framework for understanding quality management within large, complex infrastructure programs.

Both moments represent different forms of building—one physical, one intellectual—but each rooted in growth, contribution, and legacy.

This is the work women are doing every day: building communities, advancing industries, and creating pathways for others to follow.

So, while March may be ending, the momentum is not. The recognition is not. And the impact certainly is not.

Here’s to continuing the work—intentionally, consistently, and unapologetically.

Dr. King taught us that true freedom requires economic justice and equal opportunity. Peace is not the absence of conflict, it is the presence of fairness, accountability and opportunity for all. Today, we honor that legacy.

Last week, I had the pleasure and privilege of accompanying CEO Francis and fellow colleagues to represent at the annual State of the (Houston) Airports address hosted by the Greater Houston Partnership and featuring Jim Szczesniak, Director of Aviation for the Houston Airport System (HAS).

Director Szczesniak’s inaugural speech delivered highlights of this year’s record-setting achievements and economic impact and revealed bold and innovative visions for the future of Houston’s (aka Space City) airports and spaceport, including positioning the city to be leader in U.S. aerospace innovation

As a member of the IAH/International Terminal Redevelopment (ITRP) Program Management Team, with its nearly $1.5B in projects, it is a true testament that “together, we are building an airport system that connects the people, businesses, cultures and economies of the world to Houston”. The work that we do everyday matters and moves our city forward—locally, nationally and worldwide.

Houston Airports (HAS) operates and manages George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH), William P. Hobby Airport (HOU), Ellington Airport (EFD) and the Houston Spaceport.

HAS’ Economic Impact:
• $40 billion annual economic impact to Houston’s growth
• 208,000 jobs supported, generating $13.2 billion in labor income
• $13 billion in cargo-related output
• 534,123 metric tons of air cargo moved through Houston in 2023

Houston airports are also renowned for their artwork, having one of the largest collections of public art in the aviation industry. International air transport rating organization Skytrax awarded the Houston Airport System World’s Best Art in the Airport from the Airport in 2023 and 2024.
