๐Ÿ‘‹ Welcome to the ETCF team, Kelsey!

We are thrilled to introduce Kelsey Uselton, who has joined East Tennessee Clean Fuels as our new Special Projects Coordinator through the AmeriCorps program! โšก๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ

A Knoxville native, Kelsey holds a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from UT Knoxville and an M.S. from CU Boulder, with research centered on energy storage and conversion. She even presented climate research at the yearly United Nations Climate Change Conference in Baku, Azerbaijan!

At ETCF, Kelsey will focus on community-oriented impact by supporting key initiatives like:
๐Ÿ”‹ Charging Smart: Helping local municipalities achieve EV readiness designations and offering technical assistance.
๐Ÿ”Œ TEST Real World: Gathering and analyzing national EV charger performance data.
๐ŸšŒ Clean Fleets: Assisting with project stewardship and reporting, including hands-on site visits for alternative fuel transit, refuse, and school buses across Tennessee!

When she's not advancing the clean energy transition, you can find her reading, playing games with family, or exploring the outdoors with her pup, Quinn. ๐Ÿถ

Help us give Kelsey a warm welcome in the comments! ๐Ÿ™Œ
