In a field largely dominated by men, AccuWeather broadcast meteorologists Melissa Constanzer, Michelle Rotella, Jessica Pash and Kristina Shalhoup, all credit a large part of their success in meteorology to one main influence — the support and mentorship of other women.
“A lot of people don’t see it, but we struggle,” Pash said in a panel with the three other women for AccuWeather Prime. “You see our smiles on the television, but it’s a hard business to be in, and it’s even more amazing to have a woman that is there to kind of be your champion.”
