Carly Steiman is a rare mix of top-tier tradesperson and true community builder. As a Red Seal electrician and the founder of Lady Electric, she’s built a reputation for high-quality electrical and lighting work, but she is doing incredible work beyond the jobsite. She’s using her platform to make the skilled trades more visible, more accessible, and more representative. A standout example is The Tradeswomen Exhibit—a photographic gallery she helped create that spotlights the strength, skill, and diversity of women in the trades. It’s equal parts storytelling and statement: “we’re here, and we’re building.” She backs that advocacy with real-world hustle. Carly shows up in schools, at industry events, and in rooms where decisions get made—connecting with youth, builders, and government leaders to shift perceptions about trades careers and open doors for the next generation. She’s a powerhouse networker with a clear mission, and she’s proving you can deliver exceptional work and move the industry forward at the same time.
