Before joining Carbon Direct, Thaddeus worked in Washington, DC for more than a decade, focusing on energy, environment, and climate policy. Most recently, he served as Legislative Director for Congressman Marc Veasey where he led the Congressman’s legislative team. He was especially proud to have played a part in building transformative climate legislation like the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA). Prior to joining Congressman Veasey’s office, he worked briefly at the U.S. Department of Energy in the office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE).
Thaddeus lives with his wife and their 9 year old foxhound mix named Buddy. When he’s not helping Carbon Direct’s clients navigate the ever-changing climate policy space, his favorite thing to do is take his bike out for a long ride.
