ABOUT RENEE DESJARDINS

I manage multimillion- and multibillion-dollar construction projects by day. By night (and on the internet), I moonlight as Construction Girl—a passion project turned persona that helps me talk honestly about leadership, confidence, and building a career in an industry that wasn’t designed for people like me.I started as a temp site clerk. Now I’m a Senior Manager of Project Construction. Somewhere between the cranes, the chaos, and the career pivots, I stopped playing the NPC and picked up the main character energy.I\'m also proudly neurodivergent, which means I don’t always think in straight lines—but I do see patterns, solve problems at high speed, and thrive under pressure. Turns out, that\'s not a flaw—it’s a leadership edge.Construction Girl is how I tell the truth: about imposter syndrome, gender politics, what real support looks like, and why quiet confidence still gets things built. My day job is managing schedules and risk. My side quest is helping emerging leaders stop asking permission and start owning the damn trailer.If you\'re looking to build teams that think differently, lead boldly, and aren\'t afraid to throw out the blueprint—I\'m already wearing the hard hat.
