For the fifth part of our Faces of the Future series for the Line Life Podcast on Podbean, we are going to Canada, where Kendra Secerin is a fourth-level power line technician apprentice for Hydro One.
After graduating from St. Clair College for the electrical and power line programs, she is now on a transmission crew, where she is taking on a variety of projects and learning the skills of the line trade.
During this episode, she talks about serving on a committee to help promote women in the trades. She also describes the challenges of finding PPE and equipment that fits her and what it's like to work in the utility industry.
To learn more, check out her Faces of the Future profile, which will be published in the October issue of T&D World in the field-focused Electric Utility Operations section.
