About

I am a renewable energy professional with over 15 years of international experience spanning project and business development, origination, energy policy, and project management across the clean energy sector. As a former Deputy Director at the Azerbaijan Renewable Energy Agency, I advanced utility-scale solar, onshore and offshore wind, green hydrogen, and energy storage projects, fostering private sector participation and developing enabling policy frameworks to support clean energy deployment. My background includes leading stakeholder engagement, structuring power purchase agreements and commercial negotiations, supporting project finance and bankability processes, and driving partnerships across diverse energy markets. I am passionate about enabling a sustainable energy future and scaling clean technologies that drive decarbonization and energy transition goals. I recently completed a Master of Science in Energy & Sustainability at Northwestern University and hold an MBA from the University of Glasgow and a PMP® certification. I am focused on advancing renewable energy project and business development, origination, energy policy, and clean tech to deliver practical, impactful solutions in the evolving energy landscape.
