My passion is global sustainable development and carving the right path forward in the energy industry. Fortunately, I go to work every day doing exactly that, writing position papers, testifying on electric and natural gas policy, and occasionally consulting international organizations on behalf of USAID. I also enjoy working to make our electric and natural gas infrastructure more resilient by serving as the Energy Emergency Response Coordinator for the State of Idaho, where my duties primarily include interfacing with the Office of Emergency Management and utilities.
