Sharing My Skin Cancer Story

Telling people about my cancer diagnosis was not easy to do. At the time of my diagnosis, we were in a different world than we are today. I had some skin cancers that came up on the top of my forehead. I didn’t tell anyone about it. I didn’t tell family, parents, anybody else. I was a sophomore at the University of Texas playing golf. I didn’t talk to anybody because I was afraid I would lose my scholarship. I was afraid I would lose my opportunity to compete.

Green Connections: Electric Transmission and the Transition to a Clean Energy Future

By now it’s clear that I’m an ardent supporter of developing significant new clean energy resources, and doing it in a way that’s affordable for all customers. At National Grid, we are very fortunate to operate in states that share the desire to green our energy portfolio in a major way, and our policymakers have enacted ambitious and commendable energy policies to do so.
