As of July 2024, I work exclusively for WesTech Engineering (Swire Water) as the solutions lead for the Western U.S.  My focus is on industrial WTP/WWTP acquisitions and Design-Build-Own-Op-Maintain projects.

I'm an Energy & Resources Market Developer with a background growing up without electricity on a cattle ranch, home to the world's largest diatomite mine. I spent 2012-2022 in Houston before relocating back to the Pacific Northwest.

I'm fortunate to have had numerous conversations with industry leaders throughout my career and build strong relationships in the energy and resources sectors.
