Dan Buhman, General Manager of Tarrant Regional Water District, on "Take This Down" with Ty

Описание: Dan Buhman is the General Manager of the Tarrant Regional Water District, the agency responsible for providing raw water to 2.3 million people in 11 rapidly growing North Texas counties and managing a 27-mile federal floodway that protects thousands of lives and billions of dollars in property throughout the Fort Worth area. Dan sat down with attorney Ty Stimpson to talk about his upbringing in southern California (the seventh of eight kids), his inspiration to become a water resources engineer, and how he ended up overseeing one of Texas' largest water providers.

Attorney Ty Stimpson is a partner at Varghese Summersett, a premier personal injury, family law, and criminal defense practice in North Texas. He oversees the personal injury division, where he combines his passion for the law with his compassion for helping people whose lives have been shattered through no fault of their own. In his podcast, "Take This Down" with Ty Stimpson, he interviews inspiring leaders who have impacted North Texas communities, including Fort Worth, Dallas, and the surrounding areas.
