Kevin joined Pacifico Power in July 2020. He has filled many different leadership and strategy roles, including in the US Army, the FBI, the Boston Consulting Group (BCG), and Copart, an international auto auction company. As a consultant with BCG, Kevin was engaged by Fortune 500 companies, government agencies, and other clients for both strategic and operational projects to assess strategy and cost competitiveness. Kevin has consulted in the utility industry, including developing the rationales, assumptions, rules of thumb, priorities, and timelines for the deployment of more than $2B in smart grid technologies for a major utility distribution network. Other strategic work has included the management of a whole-scale transformation of a foreign defense agency, IT transformations, and M&A. Kevin received his MBA from the University of Southern California.

Mitch has been developing renewable energy projects since 2008. He has contributed to development and sales for both customer-side and utility projects using a number of technologies, including battery storage, wind energy, and photovoltaics. He began his career developing and financing large-scale wind power plants, successfully completing over 310 MWs of wind power facilities for Edison Mission Energy. Thereafter, he transitioned to a role as a sales engineer for SunPower, where project teams he worked on closed more than $140M in sales for PV projects among diverse customers across California. His insights into customers and competition led much of this success and ultimately led to his being promoted to program director of pricing strategy and competitor intelligence. More recently, Mitch developed utility-scale battery energy storage systems at 174 Power Global. He was the lead developer and contract negotiator for large battery storage projects in Hawaii, New York, Nevada, and California that are currently preparing for construction. Mitch has a master's degree in business management from UCLA's Anderson School of Management and a bachelor of arts in mass communication from the University of Utah.
