About

Infrastructure strategist, entrepreneur, operator.

Charging infrastructure should feel as thoughtful as the vehicles it supports.

My work bridges the gap between technical infrastructure and hospitality, creating charging solutions that prioritize both performance and experience. I specialize in developing premium charging destinations along underserved corridors, integrating renewable energy systems, and building operational frameworks that deliver exceptional reliability in challenging locations.

With 15+ years in IT operations across healthtech, fintech, and hospitality, at properties like Wynn Las Vegas, The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, Grand Hyatt Nashville, and Sensei wellness retreats, I bring a systems-thinking approach to every challenge. I've architected everything from enterprise identity management to compliance frameworks, always favoring solutions that are practical, scalable, and built to last.

Through leadership in EV owner communities, I keep a direct line to driver needs and charging pain points. My goal is simple: transform EV charging from a logistics burden into an integral, enjoyable part of the journey.

Currently

What I'm building

Jul 2025 – Now

Rangeway

Founder & CEO

America's first hospitality-driven premium EV charging network. Three formats (Trailheads, Waystations, Basecamps) combine ultra-fast charging with climate-controlled Driver's Lounges, quality food and beverage, and thoughtful amenities that turn a 20–30 minute stop into an experience worth having. Work spans site development, utility interconnection, operational design for remote locations, and partnerships across hardware, energy, and hospitality.
