Over the years, I’ve collaborated with dozens of manufacturers, gaining invaluable insights and proving that women can indeed thrive in this industry.

Breaking Barriers: A Woman’s Journey in the Wood Industry
When I first stepped into the world of timber, I was overwhelmed and pressured when everything was so strange and different from what I used to know. All the new knowledge about wood, how to tell what wood is not qualified to send customers and how to deal with clients that are already an expert in this field. I was a little hesitant when I started, but I know that won’t help me if I want to become successful in this industry. So I was determined to turn these challenges into opportunities. Every obstacle became a stepping stone, driving me to learn more, work harder, and ultimately succeed.
My journey began with a deep dive into the complexity of the wood industry. I spent countless hours studying different types of wood, their properties, and their uses. I visited sawmills, timber yards, and manufacturing plants, engaging with experts and learning from their experiences. This hands-on approach allowed me to gain a comprehensive understanding of the industry, which I now leverage in my role at K-Timber.
Throughout my career, I’ve encountered challenges that have only made me stronger. I’ve negotiated complex contracts, managed large-scale projects, and developed strategies to streamline our operations. Each obstacle overcome has added another layer to my expertise, allowing me to serve our clients better and contribute to K-Timber’s growth.
But my story isn’t unique. I’ve had the pleasure of mentoring and working alongside other women in the industry who are making significant strides. At K-Timber, we pride ourselves on our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. This commitment is reflected in every aspect of our operations, from sustainable sourcing practices to cutting-edge manufacturing techniques.
