Listen "Episode 39 - Jessica Bannister"
Episode Synopsis
Jessica Bannister is a 3rd generation HVAC contractor. Her dad apprenticed under his dad in the 1970's and her brother followed in his footsteps right after high school. But the trades were never considered as an option for her and so she went the traditional route of college and took an office job. In 2017, she joined Cam Cool as an admin but by March of 2018 she had registered as an apprentice and the journey began. Jessica is passionate about bringing more awareness to women in the trades, specifically women in HVAC-R. From speaking at and representing at industry events to her ongoing and engaging social media presence, she advocates tirelessly, encouraging young people (girls especially) to consider the HVAC trade as a real career option. In this episode we talk about the importance of going for it, the impact of sharing your journey, and just how smart you have to be to be in HVAC.
