BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Max Gowdy

I entered the trenchless industry in 2008 when I was hired by a family run company called LiquiForce which in 2018 became Granite Inliner. Prior to that I spent 15+ years in the concrete materials supply and construction industry. I became interested in NASSCO due to the educational focus of the association and its mission to grow the acceptance of trenchless rehabilitation throughout North America.

Jeremy Wagner

I have been in the software industry since 1993. I joined the water/wastewater industry in 1998 and became involved in NASSCO when PACP was being created. I have been heavily involved in numerous committees since then and have been part of the evolution of PACP, LACP, and MACP. My company, PipeLogix Inc., has been a member of NASSCO since 2004 and supplies NASSCO-certified software.

Laurie Perkins

I developed an early interest in the wastewater industry because of my father who was an Operator and went on to study engineering at Purdue. Providing trenchless solutions to municipal clients led me to NASSCO’s assessment standards, training them, and to becoming a Board member where I can directly impact our industry’s progress.

Joe Schotthoefer

I started working for my family business of sewer cleaning at a very young age (child labor laws do not apply). I had joined NASSCO to learn more about the industry and soon learned that this dynamic group of people can and will professionally advance our mission.

Randy Belanger

Entering the trenchless technology industry in 2005 sparked a passion as the world underground literally came into focus. The science behind today’s methods of sewer rehabilitation are simply amazing. As Sales Manager for Visu-Sewer, I am blessed to share this passion and educate clients nationwide. With NASSCO, my passion is shared worldwide.

Michelle Beason

I’ve been involved in environmental protection since I was 16 years old; when I obtained my first job with the US EPA Superfund Cleanup Program. That first job, extending for 7 years of part time employment, motivated me to study Civil Engineering at Purdue. Since then, I’ve worked in dirty water and clean water for cities and municipalities around the US and Canada, helping others plan, manage, and rehabilitate these critical assets.

Tad Powell

In 1997 one of my professors offered me a job right out of college. I am not sure if I heard the part about sewers or not, but it gave me a front row seat to the emerging sewer rehabilitation industry. The experience and relationships I have built over time have led me to NASSCO. Seeing the differences I can make by volunteering in the NASSCO committees is a great way to make sure the industry grows.
