Isn't it fascinating how much the letters 'EV' have become so prominent in our lives? As a native Detroiter and someone who has a love for vehicles, I could not have imagined that electric vehicles would have made the impact that they have, present day.

I can't think of a better clean energy technology partner than Natalie King to be one of these key leaders. In this special edition podcast episode, we dive into a great conversation around the start of Dunamis Clean Energy Partners and their focus on energy efficiency and environmental service solutions. We explored her journey of transitioning from corporate counsel to entrepreneur, some of the mistakes that she made along the way and what's next on the journey. Don't miss out on this exciting, inspiring and action-filled episode.
