Illinois South

Meet the team that can help you move your project forward

Hi, my name’s Isaiah LaRue, and I’m the Regional Sales Manager for the Midwest.

My experience includes over a decade in wastewater treatment sales and application engineering in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment projects across North America. I’m active on WEF’s Plant Operation & Maintenance Committee and, before I even got into the industry, I got my BSc in agricultural engineering from the University of Nebraska, so I’ve covered all angles of nutrient management! I am excited to help move your project forward with process treatment answers that relieve any and all of your nutrient concerns.
