At ASEC, “family first” isn’t just a phrase — it’s something people live every day. For Dominique and Diana, that idea is deeply personal. As a mother and daughter working at the same company, their story reflects how ASEC supports careers, families, and the moments that matter most.

For Dominique, St. Mary’s County has been home for over a decade — a place to raise a family, build community, and put down roots. For Diana, moving closer to family meant packing up and starting a new chapter. What began as supporting her daughter’s work at ASEC eventually turned into an opportunity to join the company herself — a decision that would change both her career and her family’s daily life.

Working at the same company has created something rare: the ability to support each other both professionally and personally. From greeting each other at the front doors of ASEC to sharing pride in each other’s accomplishments, Dominique and Diana describe a work environment that feels connected, respectful, and deeply human.

That support extends beyond their relationship. At ASEC, collaboration feels natural — leadership is accessible, questions are welcomed, and employees look out for one another like family. It’s a culture where people don’t feel alone when they’re learning something new or taking on more responsibility.
