Chicago, Illinois, Us

Led project engineering strategy and execution across Hecate solar, storage, and wind pipelines from initial project siting to construction completion. - Developed strategy to build engineering and EPC teams based on Hecate’s flat, matrix-based organization style. Recruited candidates with a diverse set of industry expertise and led 12 people across newly formed technical groups including Solar Engineering, Storage Engineering, Electrical Engineering Civil Engineering, Technical Procurement, and Construction Project Management.- Developed and implemented strategy to conduct technical diligence and design work across the entire Hecate solar portfolio- Supported procurement and supply chain efforts for strategically important company projects

I built and lead a 12-person international Board of Directors comprised of senior policy professionals, nonprofit founders, corporate leaders, and climate negotiators. Together, my team and I manage the executive team, organizational strategy, financial stability, and corporate governance for Care About Climate, a 100+ volunteer international non-profit active in 40+ countries.CAC has 1 goal and everything we do is to achieve that purpose: Empower young people from around the world to be informed and effective climate advocates. We do so through 4 programs:—Access: we have sent delegations of young people to the UN Climate Negotiations for the past 9 years to act as negotiators, speakers, advocates, and observers, including most recently when 20 CAC volunteers attended COP27 in Sharm el-Sheikh in Egypt. We also send delegations to other national and international climate policy negotiations, events, and summits —Education: we hold an annual virtual “COP Training” in the 8 weeks before COP with over 200 participants to date and a 2-week “COP From Home” program to enable remote, virtual participation every day of the UN Negotiations with hundreds of attendees to date—Research: we created and manage an “NDC Equity Analysis Tracker” that paired >110 local researchers with CAC mentors to analyze their country’s GHG-related and non-GHG-related Nationally Determined Contributions (such as finance, gender, climate justice, and adaptation commitments) to addressing climate change under the Paris Agreement and publish the results online—Advocacy: we develop and lead several local “CAC Clubs” that focus on small-scale education and environmental protection in communities around the world
