5. How did you end up in the Energy Industry?

I can thank Sanjay for this one. So the cliff notes version is we worked together on a few marketing projects, and then he introduced me to an Energy Tech Start-Up. We ended up working together there, and I was hooked. This led to evolve, and the rest is history.  

6. Why do you like working with Start-Ups?

I have been an entrepreneur most of my career, so I love working with fellow entrepreneurs. I also get to work with companies who have incredible technologies that will be an integral part of the evolution of The Energy Industry. The passion and energy in the Start-Up space is contagious. I love it.
