Leading a growing and highly-experienced Technical Advisory team, supporting clients with technical due diligence, market advisory, and other bespoke services for energy transition projects and portfolios.

Led a team of Project Managers, Analysts, and Associate Project Managers in DNV's dynamic Mergers and Acquisitions group. Supported technical due diligence for projects and platforms primarily in wind, solar, storage, and associated low-carbon technologies. Interfaced with key clients, managed projects with many distinct teams, and other as-needed tasks. One of my primary focuses was on improving the processes, tools, and services used to provide more efficient and robust customer insights.

Supported renewables M&A transactions through energy production assessments and other technical due diligence. Managed projects including wind, solar, storage, and other technologies with a primary focus on wind. Contributing to new services to address modern energy challenges.

Managed a small team of wind energy analysts, supporting technical reviews, resourcing, and business development efforts. Coordinated global methods advancements activities and acted as stakeholder and contributor to several research and development projects. Developed a new global process for energy assessments using WindFarmer Analyst. Additional focuses included operational energy assessments and new time-based analysis techniques.

Analyzed proposed and operational wind projects to determine future gross and net energy yield, determining the uncertainties in results, and drafting bankable reports and other deliverables documenting wind resource and site characteristics. As the need arose, I volunteered to develop new tools to automate analysis tasks (WindFarmer Analyst, Python, and Excel/VBA). I regularly took on the task of training the next group of up-and-coming analysts. Other notable work included designing wind turbine site layouts and optimizing turbine configurations; stochastic modeling of energy yields; managing projects with multiple contributors; and technically verifying other analysts' work.

As a Nuclear Shift Test Engineer, my actions supported the operation of nuclear reactors on aircraft carriers and submarines. With the expectation that he become an expert in nuclear power systems at the end of an approximately 2-year training program, I acted as a liaison between ship's force and shipyard maintenance personnel, helped maintain safety through tag-outs, analyzed work isolation for maintenance, and applied learned systems knowledge to advise the navy on their operations. Through my time in the nuclear world, I hacve gained insight into the role interpersonal relationships (such as those he formed with the men and women who operated these plants) play on the success of a job. In addition, this work has continued to show the importance of a systems-engineering mindset to everything he does on such large-scale projects.

Supported the Systems Engineering group at the National Wind Technology Center with a focus on mechanical analyses. In 2013, my work centered on validating loads-based sizing models for wind turbine drivetrains. In 2014, I created a fatigue-based main shaft and bearing sizing model in Python, and validated results in a published study. In 2015, I drafted and published studies which investigated the functionality of the WISDEM models, and give insight into the effects of design choices on wind turbine mass and cost.Throughout my work with the Systems Engineering Group at NREL, I improved his skills in data collection, solid modeling, finite element analysis, computer programming (MATLAB and Python), technical communication and publication of case studies/reports, among many others. I researched industry standards and OEM designs which provided insight into the design of large-scale wind turbines. Perhaps most importantly, I learned that technical writing and communication were a fundamental part of any engineering venture.
