I’m an economist specializing in energy and environmental markets. My work focuses on the design and performance of electricity and carbon markets, renewable integration, and the economic impacts of policy and regulation.
Before starting my consulting practice, I worked in federal energy and financial market regulation, where I analyzed wholesale market design, emissions policy, and regional coordination. I’ve also conducted academic research on market-based environmental policy and water resource management.
I now provide independent analysis and research support for organizations working at the intersection of energy markets, carbon policy, and the clean energy transition.
The North American grid is the world's largest machine, and the physical and financial markets that support it are just as complex. I demystify them for founders, academics, and investors.
Every kind of generation has environmental and social impacts. I quantify them alongside market outcomes.
Storage flips market operations, and RTO optimization engines aren't built for it. I build stock-and-flow models to show how opportunity cost changes markets.
AI and hyperscale demand revived nuclear from the brink. Does this resurgence reflect lasting innovation or another cycle of deferred risks?
