I am a Co-founder of Harvest and a former Wall Street energy banker. So how did a Wall Streeter desk-jockey get involved in composting and biogas? Being under the Towers on 9/11 kind of galvanized me into action. I came away from that horrific episode looking for a pragmatic approach to augment our domestic energy production from renewable resources rather than relying on foreign and traditional depleting domestic hydrocarbon sources.   So I left Wall Street shortly after that and began looking at different types of approaches and technologies. Needless to say, we think the Harvest approach is the best combination of local resources to make local energy while being cognizant of reducing all the energy needed to move energy products halfway across the planet! That’s why I am here to try and do my bit to get more domestic control of our energy.
