Background

About Daniel Pego

It all started with a box of LEGO bricks - and a curiosity about how things work and fit together. What began as a love for building small, functional cities turned into a lifelong fascination with how systems connect - power, water, infrastructure, and people. That same curiosity still drives my work today. I believe the best operations don’t just run — they hum. Behind every safe, reliable, and sustainable facility is a team that feels connected to a purpose bigger than the work itself. That’s what drives me: helping people and systems perform at their best so the lights stay on, the water stays clean, and our communities thrive. As a leader in the fields of Utilities, Power Plant Operations and Maintenance, Facilities Management, and Construction I am committed to continuous learning and developing the next generation. My leadership style centers on adaptability, empowerment, and building a zero-accident culture—qualities that have helped my teams earn multiple awards for excellence. I’ve spent my career where the classroom meets the control room — teaching, learning, and leading in the world of facilities and utilities. Whether it’s guiding a new team through a safety challenge or breaking down course material for professionals in the field, I’m at my best when I’m helping others see how the pieces fit together.
