Speaker Bio
I am originally from Washington State, where I grew up on an island just North of Seattle. I currently live near Mobile, Alabama with my Wife, Son (19), and Daughter (17) I enjoy spending time outdoors with my family backpacking, camping, or on the water. I am a certified sailing instructor and have been sailing for over 30 years. I started as an engineering CoOp at Plant Chevron in 2012. I transitioned to Plant Barry in the Summer of 2013 where I continued working on Capitol projects as a CoOp until graduating and transitioning to a full-time Engineer in 2017. Since then, I have held various system owner and system engineer roles. I have also been involved with the EEI Loss Prevention and Fire Protection task force; worked on the LOTO implementation team at Barry; and been responsible for several large O&M, and capital construction and outage projects at the plant. I am also a Southern Company sUAS Pilot. In early 2020 I transitioned to the Barry 8 team as a project engineer and the Mitsubishi LTSA administrator.
