EMPLOYEE CHASES
STORMS IN FREE TIME
Ethan Mulnix, Geographic Information System (GIS)

Utility Asset Management division, joined Davey in
2019 and enjoys mapping overhead and underground
utility infrastructure such as overhead poles,
underground manholes and underground vaults,
especially when the electric grid in major metro cities
are underground. However, his true passion is weather

tornadoes for over 10 years, and his team was the fi rst
