👥 Meet the Team: Meet Raven, one of MPWC’s Staff Engineers.
From reviewing water applications to overseeing projects in the field, Raven helps support the infrastructure that keeps our water system operating safely and reliably every day.
Raven was drawn to the water industry through her interest in environmental engineering and water treatment and enjoys being part of an industry most people don’t think about until they turn on the tap.
“One thing I wish more people understood is that there’s a difference between groundwater and surface water treatment. Groundwater comes from aquifers drilled deep underground, while surface water comes from lakes, rivers, and streams.”
We’re grateful to have dedicated team members like Raven helping serve our community.
🌎 Clean water and a healthy environment go hand in hand.

From water conservation efforts to ongoing system monitoring and infrastructure improvements, protecting water quality is part of our commitment year-round.
