Founder & CEO Homenerds inc
CSO Tom Hopkins Sales Acadamy
Student of the game
I have spent 18 years selling door to door. And have 11 years in the solar industry.
I grew up in NY about 1 hour north of NYC. And now reside in Miami Beach. I have had an incredible journey in the sales world, and now spend my time building and developing others to reach their goals in this incredible industry.
At this point there is nothing I haven’t seen in the world of direct sales. I have sold all over the country. and had an amazing career developing direct sales teams across multiple industries.
I have built teams in the cable industry, home security industry, and in 2013 transitioned into the solar space which I have proudly built a home in. I started my solar journey at SolarCity ultimately reporting to Elon Musk’s cousins Lyndon, and Peter Rive. This was honestly the best education I could have ever gotten. Took a door to door, shoot from the hip guy like me and helped propel my business acumen. We scaled our region to over 1000 sales reps and installed 100’s of MW during our tenure there.
In 2020 I founded Homenerds. A residential solar sales organization. Our mission is to always give people more than they expect. This has been my baby, and am so excited and re invigorated every day to watch my people grow, and develop them into the leaders that this world needs while continuing to be a disruptive force against the age old utility infrastructure.
In 2022 I had the incredible opportunity to take over my mentor’s personal legacy and acquire Tom Hopkins business. Under my care it will carry the same mission.
To give people more than they expect.
Tom is the author of what I call the sales bible which most of you are probably already familiar with. “How to master the art of selling”He set the record for most homes sold in a year pre internet. 365 homes in a single year. He is truly a living legend in the sales world. And I am honored to call him a friend and carry that torch for him with the best of my ability.
To me success is defined as: The continuous journey towards predetermined worth while goals.
We are not even close to done yet.
My mission is only getting stronger and more defined.
I believe my experience thus far in this short 35 years here on this earth can create shortcuts for you, or your business within this space.
Whether you’re thinking about getting into sales, just started your journey, or are already in sales and just want to up your game and break through the plateau you seem to be on, I’m happy to help.
Maybe you’re a business owner in an other industry and you’re looking to add solar to your business (which is super smart😎) I can help you do that and add millions to your bottom line like the other home service based companies we have partnered with.
People say there are no shor of cuts.
I disagree. Power of proximity is a real thing. Let me share my mistakes, and findings with you to save you the time and headaches

Hey everyone! I am a top performer at the #1 rated roofing company in Fort Lauderdale Florida, and top 100 roofing companies in the nation.
Roofing can be extremely confusing, especially for a first time client who has never been through a roofing project before.
I can make the process a bit easier, and help you avoid getting ripped off by shady contractors.

Forged in the elite ranks of the Navy SEALs with a calling to champion sustainable energy solutions for a greener planet. As a battle-tested leader who has operated in the highest-stakes environments, I bring an unwavering resolve to the mission of advancing clean power and ushering in the renewable energy revolution.
From orchestrating covert operations to now orchestrating major energy projects, my career pivot may seem unconventional, but the throughline remains the same - a relentless commitment to overcoming any obstacle through grit, strategic thinking and laser-focused execution. My time as a SEAL was defined by a warrior ethos of protecting those unable to protect themselves. Today, I safeguard the future by securing vital renewable energy projects that secure a livable planet for all.
A cleantech changemaker driven by passion and purpose, I leverage hard-won operational skills to outmaneuver roadblocks, mitigate risks and spearhead solutions vital to our transition towards carbon neutrality. My sustained track record delivering complex energy initiatives proves that the elite force mentality can catalyze gamechanging results in any theater - from the combat zone to the corporate battlegrounds driving sustainability.
Notable Origination Achievements:
* Pioneered the origination of geothermal projects for the U.S. Department of Defense, successfully navigating the complexities of government contracting to secure a first-of-its-kind contract. Resulting in $500 million in future project opportunities.
* Leveraged strong relationship-building and a consultative sales approach to establish trust and gain access to high-level decision-makers.
* Year-over-year revenue growth of 25% from 2019 to 2023.
* Developed strategies to position the company as a trusted partner in the clean energy sector, leading to a significant increase in business opportunities.
* Originated a $375 million solar investment for a major company, the largest project of its kind in the region.
* Secured a $50 million contract project with a leading technology company, paving the way for future collaboration in this emerging field.
I also serve as the Chairman of the Board at the Clean Energy Business Network (CEBN). The CEBN is a group of 3,000+ business leaders working in every aspect of the clean energy economy. We work to inform and engage business leaders in energy policy issues, increase public and policymaker awareness of clean energy solutions, and offer resources to help members address common business challenges.

With a decade of service in the U.S. Navy, I've earned multiple commendations, including the Meritorious Service Medal. My military career honed my expertise in law enforcement, anti-terrorism, physical security planning, and executive protection, culminating in my role protecting the Secretary of Defense with NCIS—a responsibility I approached with dedication and passion.
Transitioning to the business and sales world, I quickly became a top 1% earner in water treatment generating $20K–$30K monthly commissions within just 4 months. As Sales Director at a solar startup, I drove exponential growth, scaling the company from $600K to $25M in revenue within 11 months.
Today, I own a water treatment business, we are generating $1.2M in revenue in under 18 months. I'm passionate about empowering entrepreneurs, building high-performance sales teams, and helping fellow veterans successfully transition and excel after service.
