"Utilities are a challenging and ever evolving industry that I am proud to dedicate my professional career to," said Charlie.   Fast Forward's mission in automating a traditional task, especially for rural municipalities with budget challenges is what drew me to the company. They are really at the forefront of something new, and that is very exciting to be a part of.    Charlie said, "Community involvement is a passion of mine, and I currently serve as the President of our Chambers [Young Professional Network,](https://www.kearneycoc.org/kearneyypn)as well as a long serving board member for our local Junior Achievement Board. YPN is an Ambassador Group of the Kearney Area Chamber of Commerce serving as a public relations arm of the Chamber. YPN is led by young professionals to attract, retain and engage with young professionals of the Kearney Area.   My husband and I are proud to raise our daughter in the great state of Nebraska, also where I was born and raised. In my free time I love to be outside walking our dogs and enjoying the many parks we have in Kearney. Reading books and spending quality time with my friends and family!   CEO [Dusty Birge](https://www.linkedin.com/in/%F0%9F%8E%A3-dusty-b-6539a529/) said, "we've added (5) people, just this year, and am appreciative of great people willing to take a risk and come work for a startup. Charlie's reputation in the community as a young leader is evident and we are pleased to have her join and help lead the team!" Birge also mentioned, that among inspections, Fast Forward has already helped utilities recover from disasters, like the [OPPD wind storm this spring](https://www.oppd.com/news-resources/news-releases/2024/august/oppd-details-unprecedented-outage-response-for-board-of-directors/). Utilities having that pre & post storm documentation is becoming a substantial workflow improvement.  Learn more about Fast Forward: [www.ff-ai.com/intro](http://www.ff-ai.com/intro) ## Related posts [![](https://hs.ff-ai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/rs=w_1280%20(7).webp?height=200&name=rs=w_1280%20(7).webp)](https://hs.ff-ai.com/news/f/ryan-zadrazil-joins-the-team) ## [Ryan Zadrazil - Joins the Team](https://hs.ff-ai.com/news/f/ryan-zadrazil-joins-the-team) ![Picture of Fast Forward](https://hs.ff-ai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/qt=q_95-1.jpg?width=50&name=qt=q_95-1.jpg) [Fast Forward](https://hs.ff-ai.com/news/author/fast-forward) Jan 23, 2023 1:26:00 PM Ryan Zadrazil, Business Development Manager, joins the Fast Forward team, another addition to the...
