Energy is something that can easily be taken for granted unless an outage occurs and the impact is felt. I am proud to be a part of a utility company that works hard to provide safe and reliable service to the customers who live and work in our community. Not only does the system need to be maintained, including through severe weather events, but it also needs to be enhanced and expanded to meet the continually growing energy demand. It is satisfying to know that the effort and ideas that I put into my work each day contribute to such a critical service to my family, friends, and neighbors. I am also proud that my company encourages both an innovative approach to the work that we do and fosters an inclusive environment where individuals can thrive and bring value to their team.
