About Me
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.
