Job: Utility Technician III
What is a typical day like for you? As a first responder, when a call comes in for service, I respond to troubleshoot meters, fire hydrants, cleanouts and other issues. Sometimes I make repairs myself, sometimes a crew needs to be brought out
What are your hobbies/interests/special talents? Reading the news to know what is happening around the world daily, working out, cooking, gardening
Salsa verde or salsa roja? No hot sauce
What is one thing you would like people to know about CCW? It is a good environment for working and developing, it is professional. The benefits are a plus.
Xuan holds a wastewater I license, a Class D water license and a CDL He is described as a go-getter by his supervisors Great job, Xuan!
