🌟 Women of Wastewater Spotlight 🌟 👨👧 “What inspired me to become a wastewater operator was my dad. He worked at the River Authority for 35 plus years. Seeing what my dad did every day after school sparked my interest. I felt like I knew how to do this job before even joining. Throughout the years, I always asked him questions about why his job was so important. His detailed explanations about the process of treatment and its outcomes inspired me. I knew I was meant to be here before even realizing it.” – Marissa Garcia 💧 Marissa’s passion for wastewater treatment was ignited by her father’s dedication to the San Antonio River Authority. Her journey into this field was driven by a desire to understand and contribute to the essential processes that protect our environment and public health. 🔍 Challenges: “There aren’t many challenges as a woman in this field, except for maybe not being able to carry heavy things with ease like my male coworkers. However, my team always helps me and makes sure I’m included. I’m the only woman in my department, but my coworkers are supportive and respectful.” 💪 Motivation: “A great, positive workplace with respectful men motivates me daily. My coworkers are always positive, funny, and motivating. They don’t see me just as a woman but as a good worker who can handle my own weight.” 💡 Advice: “Just because you are a woman and wastewater treatment is usually considered a man’s job doesn’t mean you can’t do it. Wastewater was the best career choice for me. I’ve shown that I can do everything the men do, whether it’s power washing a clarifier or cleaning out grit in a 20ft basin.” 🌍 Why it matters: The process preserves the environment by preventing contaminated effluent from damaging sensitive ecosystems and removing impurities from sewage to prevent diseases and other health issues. 👏 Words from Her Manager: “Marissa understands how our utility impacts the lives of customers and the communities in which they live. Her desire to maintain high-quality water continues to inspire her daily.” #WomenOfWastewater #WastewaterManagement #CommunityHealth #WastewaterHeroes #PublicService #PublicHealth #WomenInUtilities #WomenInSTEM #Inspiration #WastewaterTreatment #SafeCleanEnjoyable #SanAntonioRiver #SanAntonioRiverAuthority
