Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, United States

Senior Chemical Engineer responsible for writing the technical portion of Baker Hughes’ first full DOE application for a hydrogen-cooled compressor. Filed EU patent. Helped establish the protocols for future DOE applications including considerations for intellectual property, accounting, and compliance.» Led the team that won the second and third phases of the American Made geothermal challenge bringing in $280K from the DOE. Managed cross-functional team with members across multiple Baker Hughes business units. This was Baker Hughes' first support from the DOE since the split from GE.» Worked directly with Turbomachinery & Process Solutions counterparts evaluating emerging technologies for acquisition and investment. Outlined technology maturation plans, identified potential intellectual property risks and opportunities.» Initiated more than five cross-functional R&D projects, with two producing intellectual property. One R&D project looking at alternative oxygen sources for Allam Cycle.» Authored two carbon capture desk references and helped evaluate intellectual property risks to Baker Hughes carbon capture technologies by ranking over 550 patents from competitive tech.» 26 intellectual property disclosures with 5 patents filed.» Sat on the OK Hydrogen Counsel influencing OK’s H2 policy roadmap.» Defined a technology roadmap for the Energy Transition team.
