January 2011 – February 2012

Park Cross Energy, LLC

Park Cross Energy, LLC to develop energy projects in the United States and abroad. Over the past two years I have educated and advocated for

cleaner power generation. This includes blending power production from wind and solar power generation with natural gas, LNG, CNG or

[renewable] RDF power. Through the educating and advocating of clean, reliable and affordable power, I have spoken in the Dominican Republic,

Trinidad, Grenada, China, and Turkey while capturing the attention of the State of Texas. The message that I bring forward under Park Cross Energy,

LLC, is one that keeps renewable energy progressing forward unchained from the economic incentive of the DOE 1603 grant, while utilizing the ITC

and REC or WEC incentives.

This innovative message has been well received from the US Military, City, State and County officials over the past years along with my strategic

alliances with financial entities that are able and willing to provide 100% project funds via traditional land non-traditional loan avenues.

The goal is to be innovative in engineering and breaking down the barriers between power generations specific fields. In the educating and

advocating realm of Park Cross Energy, LLC specific tasks include regulatory and economic issues, constructability, (including estimations),

negotiations with the major rotating gear manufactures on pricing, EPC negotiations from the solar manufactures, financial sustainability (IRR and

ROI), environmental sustainability.
