Employee Spotlight
SHANE OWENS
System Engineer | 4 1/2 years

"Many times, I’m the first AVECC employee a member gets to meet. I go out and meet with our members when they request power to be hooked up to their house. It’s my job to figure out where the power lines will feed into the home, and where to place utility poles. It’s a joy to be able to help our members because getting electricity is a major life event in peoples’ lives."
