Carley Hill has a long-standing history with the construction industry. Having grown up as a third-generation member of a family-owned heavy highway road and bridge company in West Seneca, New York, she spent every summer with her dad at work from as early as she can remember. "We worked in the field doing everything from stacking cones to cleaning up dump trucks and learning the foundations of the industry," she recalls. "From my teens to my early 20s, I was a laborer and carpenter's assistant. I worked in the field driving trucks, setting up traffic control, building forms, running machines and finishing concrete." While in her 20s, Hill pursued a fine arts degree from the University of Buffalo and focused on public art for five years. She then returned to the family business where she worked on logistics, equipment mobilizations, resource management and safety and risk management.
