“The ACE Mentor Program was the most profound extracurricular educational experience I had as a high school student. The opportunity to interact with professionals and get exposure to the industry was invaluable. You could feel the genuine care and passion radiating from the mentors. They advocated for me and had an instant influence in my career path. As a young professional, I am proud and humbled to be able to provide that experience to a student.”
~ Sylvia De La Cruz, ACE Houston Alumna and ACE Houston Lead Mentor
"My passion for construction started when I was about 14 years old and an avid skateboarder. I used to build skateboard ramps in our neighborhood and I always enjoyed seeing the final product after they were complete. My dad and I even built a 4 foot halfpipe in our backyard. But it was my involvement in the ACE Mentor Program that really sparked my curiosity in making a career out of construction. ACE helped me determine the different roles within the construction industry and ultimately set me up for a successful career at a young age."
~ Alex Buscher, ACE Central Iowa Alumni and ACE Houston Volunteer
