Influential Women Spotlight: Sandy K. Field—Construction Trailblazer Empowering Future Women
Sandy K. Field, CBT, CIT, a distinguished leader in the construction industry, has been making waves for over two decades with her diverse expertise and unwavering commitment to empowering women in the field. Starting her career in Victoria, Texas, Sandy transitioned from residential to commercial construction in 2002 and has since taken on various roles, including accountant, office manager, Vice President/Financial Officer, and custom homebuilder. Currently serving as the Office Manager/Bookkeeper at Meridian Constructors, LLC, Sandy exemplifies a multifaceted skill set that encompasses office management, human resources, marketing, accounting, and project management.
Sandy’s impact on the industry extends beyond her professional roles. As a passionate advocate for women in construction, she has been actively involved with the National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC), where her leadership was highlighted during her tenure as the NAWIC National President from 2014 to 2015. Her dedication to mentoring young women in the construction field has earned her numerous accolades, including the Lifetime Achievement Award from NAWIC in 2022, the Lifetime Achievement Luna Award from the Hispanic Contractors Association in 2019, and the Excellence in Leadership Award from AGC Houston in 2005.
Known for her “can-do” attitude and unwavering commitment to success, Sandy attributes her achievements to a combination of personal determination, the guidance of exceptional mentors and role models, and the support of her family throughout her career. She believes in the value of hard work and continuous learning, often reflecting on the best career advice she has received: “Learn all you can and do the work; it will pay off.” Her approach has allowed her to excel in a male-dominated field, proving that skill, persistence, and focus can break barriers and open doors for future generations.
Passionate about fostering opportunities for women in construction, Sandy encourages young professionals to reject limitations, seek out mentors—including male allies—and stay focused on their goals. She recognizes that while the industry can pose challenges, particularly in navigating a predominantly male environment, it also offers significant opportunities for women to contribute their unique strengths, such as communication, collaboration, attention to detail, and problem-solving skills.
In both her professional and personal life, Sandy is guided by core values of integrity, honesty, dependability, accountability, professionalism, and ethical conduct. She believes these principles are crucial for long-term success and making a meaningful impact in the construction industry.
Outside of her professional endeavors, Sandy cherishes time with her family, including her husband, two daughters, sons-in-law, seven grandchildren, four grandchildren-in-law, a great-granddaughter, and two great-grandsons. Her dedication to making a difference in the lives of others resonates in her quote: “We are not put on this earth to see how important we can become but to see what difference we can make in the lives of others.”
As Sandy K. Field continues to inspire and pave the way for future generations of women in construction, her legacy is one of empowerment, leadership, and a commitment to excellence in the industry.
