I lead the heavy industry program at Global Energy Monitor, a nonprofit research organization that supports the clean energy transition through open and transparent data. With degrees in Chemical Engineering and Environmental Science and Management, and experience as a wind farm planner, air quality engineer, and community-based resource management consultant, I bring strong technical skills paired with training in economics, policy, and communications. I oversee a team of project managers and researchers that have developed and maintained the Global Steel Plant Tracker, Global Blast Furnace Tracker, Global Iron Ore Mines Tracker, and Global Cement & Concrete Tracker.
