👷‍♀️ MEET THE COMMITTEE CHAIRS 👷‍♀️

Alicia Silvas-Porter - Marketing

Alicia Silvas-Porter, Senior Project Engineer at Kitchell, brings 18 years of versatile experience in the construction industry. She got her start as an admin assistant at a drywall company, assembling submittals by hand and faxing out bids. That role sparked her interest in construction accounting until she realized project management was where she truly belonged. Alicia didn’t attend college; instead, she built her career through on the job experience and is a proud advocate for alternative paths into the industry. Raised in San Bernardino, she’s also lived in Arizona, Colorado, Hawaii, and Washington. In her free time, Alicia and her family are all about travel, live music, youth sports, and off-roading adventures. This year, she’s excited to kick off a new project for the County of San Bernardino: an Animal Care Facility. She’s also loving her new role, thriving alongside a supportive teammate, and yes, she’s already counting down to Vans Warped Tour.

Mayra Aceves, MBA - President

Meet Mayra Aceves, a Project Manager at Cu***ng Group with 15 years of experience in construction. Her journey began during a difficult time when she took a job to support her family without knowing much about the industry. But something clicked, and she’s been all in ever since. Born and raised in Riverside, CA, Mayra once dreamed of becoming a book author and still holds onto a different creative goal: owning a restaurant one day. Outside of work, she loves traveling and making memories with her son, Leo. This year, she’s excited to launch a few local projects and has plans to visit both Canada and Mexico.

Denise Fernandez - Community Enrichment Chair

Denise Fernandez is the proud owner of her own business Johnson + Fernàndez Interior Design, with over 12 years in interior design and more than 15 years of experience in the real estate industry. Her journey started early. At just 17, she entered the mortgage world, setting the foundation for a long and dynamic career. Raised in Anaheim Hills after being born in Lake Elsinore, Denise once dreamed of becoming an attorney. These days, she channels that same drive into growing her business, with plans to scale up and expand into commercial design this year. In her free time, she stays active through fitness, enjoys traveling, and gives back through volunteer work. Fun fact: she played the saxophone for four years and had her childhood artwork displayed across Orange County back in the '90s.

Tracey Lawrence - Professional Development Chair

Tracey Lawrence didn’t always picture herself in construction. Growing up in Tallahassee, FL, Tracey dreamed of becoming an actress. But her path took a different turn when she was hired as a bond clerk in Florida, typing bonds on a typewriter with carbon paper. What followed was a 20 year career in surety, including underwriting assignments with two of the three largest sureties in the U.S., spanning both the East and West Coasts. Her journey was shaped in large part by a brilliant sponsor who opened doors she didn’t even know existed at the time. Today, Tracey serves as the President of Heis Surety & Insurance Services. Outside of work, she enjoys sewing, strolling through Farmers' Markets, and a good session of people-watching. As for what she’s looking forward to this year? One word: change.

Ana Rocha - Treasurer

Ana Rocha grew up in the Inland Empire and originally saw herself becoming a librarian or teacher. These days, she works as a Material Sourcing Manager and is coming up on four years in the construction industry. Her path started when she applied for a Business Analyst role, something she’d been working toward for a while, and it opened the door to a career she really enjoys. When she’s not working, Ana likes to travel, hike, read, and lift weights and loves a wintery wonderland. This year, she’s most looking forward to meeting other women in construction and being part of a supportive community.

Graciela Carrillo - Secretary

Graciela Jimenez Carrillo is a Project Coordinator with four years in the construction industry, beginning her journey after completing a certification course in Office Administration and getting her start with OCS Construction. Originally from Mexicali, Graciela grew up between San Diego and San Bernardino. As a child, she dreamed of becoming a designer, art teacher, or fashion designer, creative passions she still embraces today through sketching, music, and movies. A lover of numerology, she jokes that numbers follow her, with 444 being her special sign from above. This year, she’s looking forward to pushing herself toward new experiences and stepping outside of her comfort zone.
