ANITA BALDERRAMA

Project Accountant / Phoenix

I have many years of banking and customer service
experience, and I most recently held a role as a senior billing
coordinator. I am passionate about analytical accounting,
problem resolution, and leadership experience, and I enjoy
the feeling of making a difference in the company I work
for. I am proud of the recognition I have received from past
managers and directors.

I enjoy the analysis that comes along with working in
accounting as well as problem resolution, and the feeling of
accomplishment when an issue is resolved. I thoroughly enjoy
establishing business relationships with the clients as well as
internal management.

Outside of work, I am a self-taught photographer.

ERIC GARCIA

Lead Inspector / Austin

I started in the water industry as a laborer with the City
of San Marcos in 2001. At the time, we had just had a
daughter and I wanted to do something that was stable
and steady - I never thought I’d enjoy it so much. As the
years passed, I learned to operate heavy equipment
and then manage my own crew. I joined Austin Water
in 2010, where I became more involved in construction
(rehabilitation and new construction).
Over the years, I have attended many courses/classes in
order to maintain continuing education for TCEQ licenses.
I am OSHA 30 certified, competent person certified for
excavation safety, and I have attended FEMA Incident
Command Systems (ICS) courses.

I enjoy fishing and working in my garage, making things
from scrap wood. The best piece of professional advice I
have been given is to be good listener and to hear what
is being said, not just be present.
