JASON OGG

Senior Engineer / Nashville

I have an undergraduate degree in Chemical and
Biomolecular Engineering and a Master of Environmental
Engineering from Vanderbilt University. I worked for the
Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) doing energy efficiency
work during and immediately after my Master’s. I have been
lucky enough to work on a range of projects during my eight
years in the water industry, including water and wastewater
treatment, equalization storage, modeling, and pump
station design.

I am a member of the KY/TN Clean Water Professionals and
the TN co-chair of the Clean Water Technology Committee.
In 2021 I was selected to be a part of the 5S Society
(Select Society of Sanitary Sludge Shovelers) at the 2021
Water Professionals Conference. It was both an honor and
motivating to be a part of such a wonderful and talented
group of people that have made such a large impact in the
water industry. I am also a 2021 graduate of the KY/TN Water
Professionals Leadership Academy (WPLA).

I’m proud to say our first child, Baby Girl Ogg, was born
in July!

KENNETH BALLESTER

Resident Project Representative / Sarasota

Process systems is something that I always liked doing.
Working in the field gives me more direct interaction
with projects and I can see the different stages of the
construction and what is involved.

My hobbies include cars and helping others.
