As the head of Sales for both National Accounts and the New England Region, Joe understands the importance of having the right people on the team. “The energy business is fast paced, challenging, and frequently changing. We work in a relatively small segment of that large business arena, but the kinds of things we do and the knowledge we bring are central to our customer’s developing a robust and sustainable energy strategy.” Joe learned early in his career the value of populating a company with team members who have an owner’s mentality. He believes the team at CPower is exactly that, which is why CPower has proven to be so proficient at seeing the world through the customer’s eyes.

He came to CPower in November 2014 from Comverge where he handled project management and analyst responsibilities.

The arrogance of success is to think that what you did yesterday will be sufficient for tomorrow.” And when he’s not doing some heavy thinking (or trying to keep up with his newborn son and miniature schnauzer), this die-hard Detroit Red Wings fan indulges in his love of heavy music playing guitar, drums and bass in a number of different bands.

From the start, her financial instincts and accounting skills made her an invaluable asset to the young company. For her part, Tatiana loves working for a small company filled with dynamic changes and interesting challenges. “I’m a strong believer that there is always more to learn and the best way to learn by doing,” Tatiana says. “I also like to see a bigger picture in everyday work, and I have a feeling that whatever I do can have an impact and leave this world a better place.” Still growing professionally, Tatiana is using her CPA as a springboard toward completing her MBA by the end of 2018. At home, Tatiana finds her time happily consumed by her six-month-old, but she also makes sure to find time to get outside–hiking, biking, skiing, and rock climbing. (If she needs an adrenaline kick, she might go skydiving or scuba diving.) If you’re looking for her on a rainy day, check the latest museum exhibit.

I truly love working with our customers, providing the highest level of care, and as a bonus put money back in their bottom line!” That pretty much sums up CPower’s business philosophy, too. Outside of CPower, Michele is involved in multiple activities in her community and enjoys live music. And as someone who believes in always being a student and learning something new, Michele loves to explore and travel with her family—“I want to see what’s out there!”
