"Jennifer grew up at CEMCO; from cleaning out the shop floor to spending years learning every facet of the business. She developed a passion for the industry at a young age," said Neil Hise. "It has been a pleasure to see how much the business and industry has impacted her. Our CEMCO team has tremendous respect and gratitude for Jennifer's leadership, dedication and commitment to support our customers."

After graduating, she worked at a TXI limestone quarry, then one of its sand and gravel operations, where she became the first woman plant manager in their 50 years of operation. After three years, she returned to her roots at CEMCO as the vice president and now transitioning to her new role as president.
