I'm founder of the Minneapolis Biomass Exchange which helps connect buyers and sellers of biomass renewable energy and livestock feed.

I have 10 years of technology experience, working for several Internet-based companies in Colorado from 2000-2005: a web conferencing company, a library software company, a cell phone recycling company, and a reference management company (sort of like salesforce.com).

Eventually I decided I would be more passionate about the renewable energy industry and here I am. I came to Minnesota and have learned and worked in biomass consulting roles until July 2009 when I embarked on this startup.

I received my MBA from U of Minnesota in 2007 and bachelors of science degree in computer engineering at the U of Michigan 2000.

At the Minneapolis Biomass Exchange, we deal in wood chips, hays, wheat straw, corn cobs, corn stover, dedicated energy crops (prairie grasses, cottonwoods), etc.
