I'm passionate about making energy access ubiquitous across the world. I’ve worked in the energy industry for the past five years, first valuing large infrastructure projects in developing countries and then as a renewable energy attorney, helping clients finance, buy, sell, construct, and maintain over 650MW of solar and wind power projects. I’m hoping to use this experience to answer the difficult, but far from impossible, question of how we can close the energy access gap within the next ten years, if not much sooner. We are beyond the days where succeeding in this will unlock economic development. Universal energy access could truly transform our global society, inviting all to participate in shaping the exponential technologies of our future.
