In May I surpassed my second year in the tower industry. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in construction science and management and had ten-plus years of construction work experience. During my final year of college, I completed an internship with Hayden Tower Service and signed on with them full-time as a Project Manager after graduation.

From the beginning, I was informed about NATE and its purpose. Hayden is a NATE founding member, so I have heard stories of NATE’s origin and how it has developed since then. I was fortunate to become a member of the Member Services Committee about a year ago and attended the 2022 NATE Summer Conference in Austin, Texas, and NATE UNITE 2023 in Orlando, Florida, this past winter.

Even with my short time in the industry, I have been welcomed by everyone. I look forward to contributing to NATE’s development over the coming years and I am excited to be a part of the growing NATE community.

I wanted to take the opportunity to share some of the current membership benefits. These benefits include the following:

Member involvement and networking

Continuing education opportunities

Access to the NATE membership listing

Free members-only access to NATE safety materials (Digital)

Free NATE safety resources (Digital)
