Praise for leading ladies

It was a pleasure reading "Leading ladies," March issue, page 26. I am a professional engineer who often conducts inspections and investigations of existing roof systems and provides specifications for roof system replacements.

As an engineer, I have had the unique opportunity to interact with many segments of the roofing industry, including manufacturers, technical representatives, contractors, building departments and building owners. I also am female, so I can relate to the ladies featured in your article. It has been a fun and sometimes interesting experience for me, especially when I get to answer technical questions about roofing and structural issues.

As an engineering consultant, I often work on building systems other than roof systems. I look to Professional Roofing for up-to-date information and informative articles about the industry. Keep up the good work!
