Gottlieb sparked the dream of renewable energy

My very first solar class in 1989 was with Rich Gottlieb at his place in Guilford. He and Carol Levin were very welcoming to me.

I really wanted to work in the solar field, way before this was really possible for too many people. Rich was one of the people who gave me the inspiration to keep the dream of renewable energy.

Now, I'm a solar manager for an electrical contracting company. I manage projects far bigger than we would have ever dreamed of back in 1989.

Thank you, Richard, wherever your spirit is. And thank you, Carol, for keeping the dream going.
