I’m Lois Adeyemo, a Civil and Environmental Engineer, mentor, and STEM advocate passionate about empowering women and girls to lead with confidence in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
Over the past eight years, I’ve worked at the intersection of engineering, education, and advocacy, helping women in STEM gain clarity, confidence, and community as they navigate their careers. My journey began in the field, designing water and environmental infrastructure projects, but it quickly expanded beyond technical work into what I now call my purpose: building pathways for women to thrive in STEM.
Through my mentorship and outreach work, I’ve guided early-career professionals in discovering their strengths, developing their voice, and positioning themselves for leadership. I’ve also inspired hundreds of young girls through STEM education programs, showing them that engineering isn’t just about equations but about creativity, problem-solving, and impact.
I believe that representation matters and that every woman’s story has the power to inspire change. My work is rooted in creating inclusive spaces where women feel seen, valued, and capable of leading innovation in their communities and industries.
Today, I continue to combine my engineering experience with my passion for mentorship and advocacy to lead the next generation of women in STEM, one workshop, one conversation, and one confident step at a time.
