My mantra is #3riversproud. As a Hydraulic Engineer in ALCOSAN’s Regional Conveyance Division, I focus on hydrologic and hydraulic (H&H) and water quality modeling. Coming from a country where rivers are revered as sacred, I feel a deep connection to Pittsburgh\'s iconic three rivers: Monongahela, Allegheny, and Ohio. To me, a river\'s true value lies in its safety and the reliability of its water quality for the community\'s enjoyment. At ALCOSAN, our mission is to protect public health and enhance the sustainable use of our natural resources. This commitment fuels my pride not only in our technical work with sewers and sewage treatment but also in our dedication to preserving the integrity of our rivers. I am passionately working on ALCOSAN\'s $2 billion Clean Water Plan to ensure that by 2036, we can prove to our ratepayers and regulators that we truly embody the spirit of being #3riversproud, keeping our rivers safe and treasured for everyone.
