I am an Associate with CBRE's National Data Center Solutions Team based in Chicago, IL. My primary focus is on site selection for hyperscale, AI, and colocation data centers across the United States. I am focused on identifying opportunities for behind the meter energy projects to power data center facilities. My career began as a junior broker at Marsh McLennan, where I specialized in brokering treaty reinsurance placements for insurance companies. This experience provided me with a strong foundation in financial analysis, sales, and negotiation skills. Additionally, I worked with a private equity advisor at the end of college and during my early career, concentrating on data center site selection, development, financing, and real estate acquisition. I hold a degree in Supply Chain Management and Economics from the University of Arkansas, Walton School of Business. During my academic career, I completed an internship in electrical manufacturing with Atkore, based out of Chicago, IL.
