Operating at the intersection of energy infrastructure, AI compute, and agent systems.

More

I spent five years at PG&E across Grid Integration and Innovation, focused on the adoption of new technologies into the utility environment, and Transmission Integrity Management, focused on asset integrity and risk management. I then led Go-to-Market at Exowatt (modular dispatchable solar technology) as the first commercial hire. I secured early commercial commitments across tier-1 hyperscalers, data center developers, and utilities, growing the commercial pipeline roughly 5x during my tenure. On the AI side, I co-founded Aineko (open-source developer platform for AI agents) and Offline Magic (AI publishing company built on an agent stack).
