In 2009, she worked in Washington, D.C. for a mechanical contracting company and in 2008, she was employed by Turner Construction Company in New York, New York. Traveling is one of Kayla’s many interests, and she was lucky enough to spend eight weeks backpacking through western Europe after her freshman year in college.
