Renewable projects and business models involve complex technologies, counter-parties, and tax structures. I provide tax counsel on both the tax equity and project developer side to help clients navigate these challenges. I particularly enjoy working closely with my clients to adapt traditional project development and finance methods to suit their unique business models and close on their financing transactions.

My passion is working with smart people who have good ideas in the tech space. I enjoy advising emerging companies with cool technology; I can see what they’re trying to accomplish and help them get there in the best way possible, whether it’s growing their business, raising money or ultimately selling their business. I understand what the client is asking for because I’ve also been the client.

I’ve built long-term relationships with clients based upon taking care of their needs, regardless of what they may be, and by being responsive, effective, and efficient in achieving their goals.

I love finding the solution to a complex problem. That makes this job fun.

I love the collaborative, creative and diverse nature of my practice. I enjoy working with broad teams of clients and other advisors from a wide range of industries, both domestically and around the world.

Clients appreciate that I provide a broader prospective when delivering advice, having spent over 20 years in renewable energy doing everything from working in an in-house capacity, to serving in a senior business role, to leading renewable energy and infrastructure practice groups at major law firms.

As technology and power generation have continued to evolve and grow exponentially, we have evolved as well by innovating financial and legal structuring and finding solutions that are embraced by all stakeholders in the zero and carbon neutral power space.

One of the things I like best about my work is that I get to be deeply involved in my clients’ businesses. I like developing close relationships with my clients and working with them to find creative and efficient ways to solve complex problems and achieve their goals.

I'm a transactional lawyer, but my relationships with clients are not merely transactional. They're deeper, more strategic. We are true teammates.

Project development and finance is largely an exercise in problem solving – every project faces its own unique set of extremely complex challenges. We are fortunate to have clients that trust us to help them overcome those challenges with the development of what is usually a fundamentally important piece of infrastructure that serves a community or region.
