Meet - Zach Zamaroni

Zach Zamaroni joined Stockton East Water District in April 2026, and currently serves as an Electrical Technician 1. He enjoys the variety his position offers, whether he's assisting the mechanics, traveling to one of the District's remote facilities, or helping maintain the electrical systems that keep water flowing to our community. He especially enjoys working outdoors and takes pride in helping maintain the electrical systems that deliver reliable water service to the District's agricultural customers and local communities.

He chose a career in electrical maintenance because it provides the stability and work-life balance that allows him to build a home and family while pursuing a rewarding profession. Throughout his career, he has learned that the effort invested in any task is usually rewarded, whether through a sense of accomplishment, personal pride, or professional growth. That philosophy motivates him to give his best effort every day.

Outside of work, he enjoys spending as much time outdoors as possible. Whether he's backpacking in the mountains, taking his wife fishing on their boat, or working on his turbocharged square-body Chevrolet pickup, he enjoys staying active and taking on new projects. Looking ahead, he is most excited about welcoming his daughter and raising her with his wife as they continue to grow their family.

Many people may not know that Zach proudly served his country in the United States Marine Corps, including overseas deployments. His dedication, strong work ethic, and willingness to help wherever needed make him a valued member of the Stockton East team.

Meet - Ryan Welch

Ryan has become a valued member of Stockton East Water District through his analytical mindset, dependable work ethic, and collaborative attitude.

Ryan enjoys solving problems, finding efficient solutions, and knowing that his work contributes to the District's success. His attention to detail and willingness to take on new challenges make him a reliable team member who is always looking for ways to improve and support those around him.

Ryan is passionate about continuous learning and enjoys expanding his knowledge both professionally and personally. One skill he hopes to learn is welding, allowing him to take on more do-it-yourself projects at home and develop a new hands-on hobby. Looking ahead, one of the items on his bucket list is traveling internationally to experience different cultures, explore new places, and create lasting memories. He appreciates opportunities that help him grow and enjoys stepping outside of his comfort zone to learn something new.

To Ryan, teamwork means working together to make every day a good day by supporting one another and creating a positive environment where everyone can succeed. He believes that collaboration, communication, and a willingness to help each other are essential to accomplishing shared goals.
