Chief Commercial Officer, Offtake Energy | Chief Product Architect, OfftakeAI
With 15+ years of experience in Utilities Resource Planning, Finance & Policy, I have navigated the complexities of the Power & Utilities Sector. My most recent role at an Engineering, Procurement & Construction (EPC) firm has helped me understand the cost of energy projects & project execution. Before that, I was part of the early teams at multiple energy startups, including one backed by a globally renowned private equity firm, where I saw firsthand what drives a high-multiple exit.
My background is rooted in energy, operations & financial modeling, with a strong focus on regulatory policy & strategy. I have led electric rate cases and transmission formula rate filings across five different RTOs, updated long-term Integrated Resource Plans, modernized power trading & load management applications, & structured mergers, acquisitions, & origination deals.
Within a regulated regional power market, I have led pioneering efforts that help Industrial Users access the benefits of the MISO wholesale power market. I have also served as an expert witness for Fortune 500 industrial clients in electric rate cases, advocating for their rights at the state level by challenging discriminatory practices and at the federal level by helping ensure protections under the Federal Power Act and PURPA are upheld.
