Founder
I didn't start Future Energy Global to join the climate narrative. I started it to show what climate impact really is.
More than 25 years in aviation, including 14 at GECAS, where she led strategy across one of the world's largest aircraft portfolios. She started Future Energy Global on a simple observation: lessors scaled the global fleet by aggregating demand, and the same mechanism can scale sustainable fuel.

Why I started this.
Future Energy Global started with an idea I kept coming back to. Lessors scaled the global fleet by aggregating demand, and that same mechanism can scale sustainable fuel. I had watched it work once. I wanted to point it at a harder problem.
I came to it after over 25 years in aviation. Airbus first, then GECAS, where I led strategy across one of the biggest aircraft portfolios in the world.
Aviation emissions are not the only measure. Sustainable fuel is still under one per cent of what aviation burns. But scaling it also means a supply made closer to home, one you can follow the whole way, and counted once so the same reduction is never sold twice. People hear “sustainable fuel” and picture what comes out of the engine. I picture the chain behind it, and the people along it, and the benefits it can bring to local communities.
I didn't start Future Energy Global to make a promise. I started it to make a difference, a real and provable one. I have three daughters, so the long view is not abstract to me. This is the standard we hold ourselves to, whether anyone is watching or not.
