Background

About Kelsey Hamilton

I am an energy and sustainability professional with 12+ years of experience advancing clean energy solutions in both government and consulting. Most recently at the U.S. Department of Energy, I managed programs and pilot scale-ups that accelerated innovative technologies into the marketplace. Earlier in my career, I worked with boutique consulting firms to deliver market assessments, energy modeling, and technology potential analyses that guided investment and policy decisions. My expertise spans program and project management, energy efficiency, decarbonization strategy, and building systems modeling. I bring strong communication skills—technical writing, data visualization, and public presentations—that translate complex ideas into actionable insights for diverse stakeholders. I hold dual degrees in Chemical Engineering (B.S.) and Physics (B.A.) from the University of Virginia, and I continue to deepen my knowledge through professional development, including RPI’s Lighting Research Center LED Institute and the OnePointFive Sustainability Accelerator. I am passionate about driving measurable progress toward a low-carbon future and am seeking opportunities in energy efficiency, corporate sustainability, and clean energy program management where I can combine technical expertise with strategic impact.
