At Entergy Texas, women engineers are helping power communities, strengthen the power grid, and shape a more resilient energy future. Whether they are designing systems or leading complex projects these women play a critical role in the energy industry.

Still, according to a 2024 report from the U.S. Department of Labor, women represent 26% of the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) workforce in the United States. That gap is one of the reasons International Women in Engineering Day was created. Observed each year on June 23, the day celebrates the contributions of women engineers while encouraging more girls and women to pursue careers in STEM.

At Entergy Texas, we’re proud to spotlight some of the remarkable women who are breaking barriers and helping to lead the way for future generations.

Abby Childress
Project manager, Distribution reliability

Abby Childress didn’t always envision herself in engineering. It wasn’t until two weeks into college at Louisiana State University that she switched her major from nutrition to mechanical engineering and realized she was exactly where she was meant to be. 

“I was always really strong at math and physics, and engineering was catered toward what I was good at academically,” she said.

Now six years into her career, Abby is managing reliability projects that directly impact customers across Southeast Texas. Her journey reflects both the resilience and confidence she brings to her work.

“Engineering is hard, but that’s what makes it so rewarding,” she said. “The challenges are a function of the confidence you have in yourself.”

Her advice to the next generation of women interested in STEM?

“Your voice is of such great value. Push yourself to be confident in who you are and what you know. The reward is something you’ll be proud of for the rest of your life.”

Ana Garcia
Supervisor, Distribution design and engineering

For Ana Garcia, she knew early on that her professional journey would lead to a career in the STEM field. She pursued an engineering degree at the University of Texas at El Paso and has never looked back.

“It was always doing something different that kept me motivated and happy in my position,” she said.

While studying, she quickly noticed the gender gap in her classes and was inspired to be an agent of change.

“There were not many of us. I’d say it was an 85-to-15percent or even 90-to-10-percent ratio of men to women.”

Garcia now leads a team supporting major infrastructure projects and finds fulfillment in the direct connection between her work and the lasting impact it has on people’s everyday lives.

“What we do is incredible. It’s technical to the core. We really do change lives out there.”

Oluwatobiloba Johnson
Engineer, Distribution Operations Center

With encouragement from family, Oluwatobiloba Johnson stepped into engineering and found a passion for problem-solving and continuous learning. 

“My brother and cousins said, ‘You can do it—you’re good at math and science.’ Everyone supported me.”

Now five years into her career, she’s helping ensure electric reliability across the Southeast Texas power grid—while still learning from those around her.

“Learn from anybody you can. Once you’re open to learning from people around you, even people in your shoes—you can do engineering.”

Her message to women wondering if they belong in this space is one of strength and persistence.

“Stretch yourself when needed. Engineering isn’t about physical strength — it’s about mental strength.”

Building the future, together

From classrooms to control centers, women like Abby, Ana and Oluwatobiloba are shaping a more inclusive and innovative energy future. Their work reflects Entergy Texas’ commitment to empowering the next generation of leaders in engineering and beyond.

The Next 50 Years Starts Today, on NAWBO’s Birthday, With a Renewed Commitment

WASHINGTON, July 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Today marks 50 years since the founding of the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO®), a powerful voice and ecosystem of support that has fueled the dreams and growth of millions of women entrepreneurs across the U.S.

For five decades, NAWBO has been there—advocating, elevating and empowering women business owners.

Since its founding on July 7, 1975, NAWBO has been the only dues-based national organization representing the interests of all women entrepreneurs across all industries. It has served as a catalyst for change, a champion for equity and a steadfast source of connection, education, advocacy, recognition and opportunity.

Read about 50 years of progress for women business owners here and more about the role NAWBO played here.

“For five decades, NAWBO has been there—advocating, elevating and empowering women business owners,” says NAWBO’s CEO Jen Earle. “We’ve helped shape the environment in which women entrepreneurs start and scale their businesses, and we’re proud to continue that work today with more resources and support than ever before.”

NAWBO’s impact over the past 50 years includes:

  • Creating a powerful national network of chapters, partners, events and recognitions that bring women together to lead, grow and lift one another up.
  • Helping pass landmark legislation like The Women’s Business Ownership Act of 1988 (H.R. 5050), which granted women business owners the right to obtain business credit in their own name and led to the creation of the Women’s Business Centers and National Women’s Business Council.
  • Launching the NAWBO Institute, a 501(c)(3) educational foundation that provides robust programming to elevate and equip women entrepreneurs at every stage of business, including the Circle program for top-tier women business owners ($1M+).
  • Re-launching WBE/MWBE Certification through the Institute, offering a valuable and accessible option for women looking to grow their businesses by leveraging their woman-owned status for contracts and other opportunities.
  • Advocating to define microbusinesses to help ensure they receive tailored support and resources, especially in accessing capital and procurement opportunities.

For more on this impact, check out NAWBO’s historical timeline and 50th anniversary commemorative book now available on Amazon.

As NAWBO celebrates this milestone year, it remains focused on the future: on expanding its reach, growing membership and ensuring that every woman business owner has the tools, visibility, voice and community she needs to thrive in this ever-evolving business landscape.

“Women business owners are resilient, innovative and unstoppable,” adds Earle. “NAWBO’s next 50 years starts now with a renewed commitment to ensuring they’re never alone in their journey.”
