Goodwall Social Impact's post on Goodwall - Imagine a world where the word sustainability doesn’t exist. Not because it’s not an important concept, but the exact opposite – because it’s so important it becomes redundant, completely embedded into the way we operate as a society. How do we get to that point? We need to open doors that may seem locked shut on the surface to uncover unlikely opportunities – like energy conservation and renewable energy deployment within the military, the world’s single largest consumer of energy. Tracy will explain the scale of the energy crisis and illustrate why we can’t keep waiting on the world to change. Devan Tracy designed her own role as an energy engineer at Lockheed Martin, focused on eradicating the world’s addiction to excessive, non-renewable energy consumption. Most recently, she is responsible for 6,525 megawatt hours per year of onsite solar power development, the equivalent of powering 606 U.S. households. She holds a MEng degree in sustainable systems engineering from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a BS degree in mechanical engineering from Binghamton University. An Engineer in Training (EIT), Energy Manager in Training (EMIT) and Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Accredited Professional, Tracy is also a Spotify-streaming, acoustic-folk/pop singer-songwriter and performer in classical percussion who also specializes in jazz drumming, hand-drumming, marching tenor drums, keyboard and ukulele. During her college career, Tracy opened for the Lumineers (via the transitive property). In her free time, she tours on bicycle, including trips to circumnavigate Iceland and traverse the United States.
