Professional Women in Construction

PWC is a national nonprofit organization founded in 1980 to support, advance, and connect women and promote diversity in the architecture, engineering, construction, and related fields. Fourteen industry leaders in Chicago came together in 2021 to extend that mission to the first midwestern chapter. Our vision is implemented by actively engaging our members in career development, hosting events that facilitate connection and foster open conversation, and providing leadership opportunities on member-driven committees. We welcome all genders in our membership - together we can do more to support women in our industry!

Member Spotlight

Sales Manager / Landquist & Son

Tracy Box serves as the current Sales Manager at Landquist & Son, a US-based, family-owned manufacturer of durable bifold, pivot, and bypass closet door systems for the multifamily industry. Being part of a three-generation business—founded by her grandfather and now led by her father— has shaped not only Tracy's career, but her perspective on relationships, craftsmanship, and long-term commitment in the industry. Through her work in the closet door manufacturing space, Tracy collaborates closely with architects, developers, and contractors to ensure that even the most overlooked elements—like interior closet door systems—are executed with precision and purpose. Tracy takes pride in being a reliable partner on projects, helping teams navigate challenges, meet code requirements, and ultimately bring their vision to life.
