After almost 20 years as a structural engineer, Patricia Rodriguez reached a point where her career had gotten somewhat stagnant and she was ready for a change. She jumpstarted her next chapter by teaching and founding her own firm and teaching—the dream combo she had imagined in graduate school.
Patricia shares how she opened new doors for herself as a woman-and-minority-owned small business and how her long standing relationships in her industry helped her land her first clients as well as a teaching position. She recalls the ups and downs of starting her own business, which included learning new skills to run her firm, PAR Engineering, in New York City.
