I would encourage young women to stretch themselves by working outside of their comfort zones, to be inquisitive enough to move into areas they are not familiar with and to trust that if they don’t have the necessary tools today to get where they want to be, there are organizations like Westinghouse that are willing to empower and support them.   ![KE Sung](https://info.westinghousenuclear.com/hs-fs/hubfs/KE%20Sung.jpg?width=242&name=KE%20Sung.jpg)**Kyong-Eun Sung**  *Project Engineer, BNPP 1, 2, 3 & 4 Projects/Energy Systems* How has a male colleague championed for you in the workplace? I started my career as a project administrative assistant, but my previous boss gave me a chance to work as a project engineer within project delivery, execution and management. This is a very unusual case, and I am always grateful to him for giving me that chance to see my potential.   ![Camille_cropped](https://info.westinghousenuclear.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Camille_cropped.jpg?width=244&name=Camille_cropped.jpg)**Camille Zozula**  *Manager, Regulatory Compliance & Corporate Licensing, QEHS/Regulatory Affairs* What inspires you to be a Women in Nuclear (WIN) member? I enjoy WIN because of the camaraderie and the activities we’re involved in that give us the opportunity to give back to our company and community.   ![Alice_Cropped-1](https://info.westinghousenuclear.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Alice_Cropped-1.jpg?width=250&name=Alice_Cropped-1.jpg) ** Alice Cunha da Silva ***Key Account Engineer for Latin America, Americas Operating Plant Services* **What at Westinghouse motivates you to come to work every day? **Nuclear makes a big and positive difference in the world; it’s an essential part of solving global challenges like the climate crisis. What motivates me the most is knowing that by working in nuclear, I am contributing to that and a part of that.     ![Tova](https://info.westinghousenuclear.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Tova.jpg?width=250&name=Tova.jpg)**Tova Anderson ***Customer Account Manager, Americas Operating Plant Services* **As a female leader, what has been one significant barrier in your career and how have you overcome it? **I’m very fortunate to not have run into anything that I would call a significant barrier. But of course, there have been challenges. For instance, advancing within a technical company without having a technical degree. However, there is always the opportunity to learn. I took advantage of that – and worked hard – to prove that I could perform as well, if not better, than some of my colleagues with technical degrees. * * - [About](https://westinghousenuclear.com/about) - [Innovation](https://westinghousenuclear.com/innovation) - [Energy Systems](https://westinghousenuclear.com/energy-systems) - [Nuclear Fuel](https://westinghousenuclear.com/nuclear-fuel) - [Operating Plants](https://westinghousenuclear.com/operating-plants) - [Careers](https://westinghousenuclear.com/careers) [![Westinghouse](https://info.westinghousenuclear.com/hubfs/Blog/WEC_Logo_blog_footer.png "Westinghouse")](https://westinghousenuclear.com/) ©2026 Westinghouse Electric Company LLC.
