Alumni, Renewable Energy B.Tech.
My first job out of college was operating and maintaining a community anaerobic digester. I then moved into Solar installation which was primarily residential systems. Once I gained more on the job experience I moved into system design and development on NYS commercial systems. This eventually became an operations position for community solar. I then moved into my current position of Design Engineering, which has me working on Distributed Generation solar, energy storage. and wind systems in several states across the US. All of these positions in the renewable energy industry were only possible because of the education I received at SUNY Morrisville.
