Judaline Cassidy Set as Closing Brunch Keynote Speaker
Judaline was one of the very first women accepted into Plumbers Local Union 371 Staten Island New York, and the first woman elected to the Examining Board of Plumbers Local Union No One. With her guidance, fortitude and determination she ushered in the first Women's Committee within her Union of which she's the President. She serves on the Advisory Board for the Women’s Building NYC. In June of 2017 she established the nonprofit Tools & Tiaras Inc. The organization's primary goals are threefold: Expose, Inspire and Mentor young girls and women about the highly lucrative field of construction. She's been featured at the 2017 Makers Conference, Megan Kelley Show and BBC's The Conversation. We're proud to have Judaline join our roster along with our Keynote Luncheon Speaker Major MJ Hegar to make this Annual Conference a POWERful event! Early Bird registration begins March 1. More details will be coming soon.
