I’m honored to serve as President and CEO of PNGC Power at a time of real opportunity and transformation across the Pacific Northwest energy sector. Since our inception, PNGC has been a thought leader for public power, focused on delivering reliable, low-cost electricity that supports our homes, businesses, and rural communities. Today, we’re building on that legacy by investing in resource development and long-term strategies that help ensure a sustainable, dependable power future for our members.
As PNGC continues evolving beyond a traditional “paper G&T” into a full-service provider and resource developer, our focus is simple: giving every member more certainty, flexibility, and options, whether your community is growing quickly or managing stable load. We’re advancing major initiatives in resource development, transmission planning, and long-term power supply, with an eye toward the practical, member-driven outcomes that matter most: reliability, affordability, and resilience.
To meet the moment, we’re also strengthening how we execute, adding more discipline, consistency, and visibility from strategy through delivery. With new leadership capacity in treasury, resource development, and strategy and project management, we’re expanding the internal expertise required to build the generation, infrastructure, and market capabilities our members will rely on for decades.
One thing I’ve learned throughout my career is that collaboration is what makes organizations work best. PNGC is partnering with our communities in new and innovative ways and working side-by-side with our members to create local resiliency and system-wide reliability. I’m excited about what we’re building together, and I’m confident that PNGC’s bright resource future will continue to deliver value for the members and communities we serve.
