Trudi Williams became an engineer to prove a point.
A nurse by training, Williams was headed to medical school when her boyfriend told her she didn't have what it takes to be an engineer.
So she switched careers, became an environmental engineer in 1981 and married that boyfriend, Don Williams, also an engineer. “I should've gone into medicine,” she says with a smile.
