Letitia Cannataro
Hi! I’m Letitia (La-TEE-sha), Talent Development Manager at Hunter Contracting Co., an Air Force veteran, and a mom. Whether in uniform or in construction, my work has always been about helping people recognize their potential and build the confidence to pursue it.
​
After 11 years in the Air Force, including deployments, I moved into construction, partly to show my daughter that women can build careers in industries where they don’t always see someone who looks like them. Today I lead employee development, leadership programs, and onboarding, helping people find room to grow.
​
That passion led me to help build AZAGC’s BWiC committee in 2024 to empower, inspire, and connect women in construction.  As co-chair and then chair, I helped grow it from 43 to more than 70 members through professional development, networking,Â
community service, student outreach, and the Inspire Awards.   Our goal: help women enter the industry, stay, and advance.
​
My term as BWiC chair wraps up in December 2026, and I’m honored to continue this work through Women Who Lead. As a veteran, I value the connections we build across different backgrounds, and I want to help create a community where women feel comfortable asking questions, finding their voice,  and defining success on their own terms. Being a mom keeps  that purpose close to home: I want my daughter to see that leadership can look different for everyone.
​
My leadership style? Lead from the side, cheer loudly, and step out front when needed (or when things get interesting)!
