David Williams

David is an assistant engineer with an interest in hydraulics, hydrology, and stormwater control measures.

David started with WSC as an engineering intern but joined the team full time as an engineering assistant supporting projects in Central California. He graduated from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo with a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering.

Prior to joining WSC, David worked in residential construction and building and grounds maintenance. He credits this background with his strong respect for constructability and maintainability, something which inform his current work.

On a personal note

Whether it be streams, rivers, lakes, rain, hail, or snow, water has featured prominently in countless meaningful experiences I have had in the natural world. Creating cost-effective systems that allow for use of and benefit from this precious resource without carelessly exploiting it is the ultimate challenge faced by water resource engineers and planners across the globe today. I am excited to be working on multiple projects, notably potable reuse projects, which address this challenge.
