About

I am a consultant working on a range of renewable energy development and demonstration projects across Europe and the UK. In my role on the Sustainable Energy Solutions team in ERM based out of London, I am focused on hydrogen mobility and infrastructure, and particularly on funded projects from the European Union and Innovate UK. Originally from San Francisco, California, I studied at the University of St Andrews in Scotland where I graduated with first class honors jointly in International Relations and Sustainable Development. I now live and work in London.
