Renewable Energy Harnesser
“I knew that the environment played a role in everyone’s day-to-day life, but my courses gave me a better understanding of just how much it shapes the world we live in. ”
At Allegheny
Environmental Studies, Political Science
I went into college not knowing what GIS was, and after a few classes I knew that I wanted to make it my career. One class that always sticks with me was Eric Pallant’s course on the environment, culture, society, and politics. I had never thought about world political issues through the lens of the environment. I can firmly say that it changed how I view the world today.
At Work
Green Energy Developer, Exus Management Partners
I am currently helping develop projects on the sites of old coal power plants. We are working with a company out of Portugal that builds data centers for long haul fiber optic networks. They want to build on these locations and power them using renewable energy. Our role at my company is to help find and develop these locations and create the plans to build solar and wind farms to power them. Turning a once fossil fuel power plant into a green powered information center.
