Meet - Justin Hopkins
Justin has been a dedicated member of the District since January 2019. Serving as General Manager, Justin provides strong and purposeful leadership that supports both our staff and constituents while advancing the District’s mission to deliver safe, reliable, and sustainable water supplies.
Justin’s favorite part about working at Stockton East is the people, the purposeful work, and the culture established by the leadership team. Justin’s decision to pursue his current career path was driven by a clear ambition: to take on an upper management role within an organization that plays a meaningful role in shaping the future of the region.
Outside of work, Justin enjoys traveling and water sports. A lighter side to his story—few people know that Justin is the proud owner of two ducks. While they may look adorable, they have been known to display a surprisingly aggressive streak!
Justin is a valued leader at Stockton East, embodying the District’s core values and making significant contributions to our continued success.
"Justin has been instrumental in bringing transformative shift in culture at Stockton East Water District. He is dedicated to improving relationships between the Board and staff, consistently represents the District with professionalism, and has advanced infrastructure improvements and new projects. His advocacy for the Farmington Reservoir Project and his extensive outreach efforts have reinforced the District’s mission and values. Justin’s leadership is forward-thinking, impactful, and invaluable to the continued success of the District."Board of Directors, Stockton East Water District
Meet - Mouy King
Since joining Stockton East Water District in March 2021, Mouy has been an integral part of our Finance team, serving as Accounting Technician II (Accounts Payable). She ensures accurate accounting of expenses and timely payment of bills, supporting the District’s commitment to financial responsibility.
Mouy’s favorite part of working at Stockton East is the camaraderie among the team—and she especially enjoys having two dogs on the property that add to the friendly atmosphere. She often says that “the profession chose her”, beginning with her time at Hertz before finding opportunities for growth at Stockton East.
Outside of work, Mouy loves hiking, camping, and fishing. Something no one knows about Mouy is that she has been training to hike uncharted territory in search of the Monty Wolfe’s cabin.
Mouy is a valued member of the District, known for her teamwork, positivity, and dedication to our mission.
"Mouy is an exceptional member of the Finance team who consistently demonstrates accuracy, reliability, and professionalism in her work. She takes great pride in ensuring that the District’s accounts payable processes run smoothly and efficiently. Beyond her technical skills, Mouy brings a positive energy and spirit of collaboration that strengthens our entire team. Her commitment to teamwork and her willingness to support others make her a truly valued colleague and a vital part of the District’s success."Priya Ram, Director of Finance & Administration
