According to the U.S Bureau of Labor Statistics, women make up just under 11% of construction workers."I was sitting in a meeting. Once again, it was all-male contractors.

They're tired of being taken advantage of," Ivy said.
Ivy has partnered with Chicago Women in Trades, a nonprofit working to get women involved in various trade careers, and hopes her efforts have a lasting impact on women across the country.
