​Energy Efficiency and Building Electrification Fellow, East Bay Community Energy

Give a summary of the work that you are doing through your fellowship.
I work on a variety of projects aiming to increase the efficiency of buildings in our service territory. Much of this work aims to accelerate the decarbonization of our building stock through gas-to-electric conversions, particularly in kitchens.

What is your favorite part of your job?
My favorite part of my fellowship is being able to learn from industry professionals who have been incredibly open to sharing their technical and philosophical expertise with me every step of the way.

What is a recent accomplishment that you are proud of?
I'm particularly proud of my work on our induction cooking campaign which aims to promote electric induction cooking as an alternative to gas. We're soon launching a rebate program under this campaign that I designed and will be implementing.
What is the most important skill or lesson that you have learned during your fellowship?
The most important set of skills I've learned during my fellowship relate to being able to understand and propose solutions to decarbonizing buildings. This is a new area of work for me and I'm endlessly fascinated.
If you were a sustainable technology or item, which one would you be and why?
It quickly identifies me as a "building nerd" but I would have to say a heat pump. They're such a gold standard piece of sustainable tech that I'm excited to see become the conventional option.
Climate Corps, a flagship program of SEI, is a bridge-to-career Fellowship program that recruits and places rising climate professionals with local governments, non-profits, educational institutions, and for-profit partners to implement climate change mitigation and resiliency projects.
