I help solar companies move projects seamlessly from signed contract to Permission to Operate (PTO) by managing permitting, utility interconnections, HOA approvals, project coordination, and customer communication while delivering accurate, timely results and contributing to an industry-leading 20% project cancellation rate. As a Permits Manager, I oversee the end-to-end permitting process, managing permit applications, utility interconnections, and HOA approvals while collaborating with remote teams to ensure projects progress efficiently from planning to installation without delays. I have successfully coordinated residential solar projects from point of sale to completion, contributing to a team that generated over $7 million in annual revenue while helping achieve recognition as one of the fastest-growing private companies in the United States in 2020. Beyond solar, I've built experience in customer service, sales, and operations with international companies including Fay Servicing International and Edves. This diverse background enables me to communicate effectively with homeowners, AHJs, utilities, installers, and internal teams while keeping projects organized and on schedule. What I can help you with; ✔ Solar Permit Applications ✔ Utility Interconnection Applications ✔ HOA Applications & Architectural Review Packages ✔ AHJ Requirement Research ✔ Permit Revisions & Corrections ✔ Project Coordination ✔ Permission to Operate (PTO) Support ✔ Customer Communication & Status Updates ✔ Administrative Support Why Clients Choose Me I don't just submit paperwork I keep projects moving. I understand how delays in permitting, utility approvals, and HOA reviews affect installation schedules and customer satisfaction. My goal is to eliminate bottlenecks, communicate proactively, and deliver accurate work the first time. If you're looking for someone who takes ownership of your permitting and project coordination process while providing reliable communication and dependable support, I'd be happy to help.
