Ted Wiley is a co-founder, organization builder and problem solver dedicated to commercializing innovative ideas. He earned his BSc in Physics at Seattle University in 2002, and began his career serving as a US Army Infantry officer. This included a year in Iraq, where he was a platoon leader and had a close-up view of the geopolitics and infrastructure surrounding fossil fuels. It was the experience that prompted him to study clean technology entrepreneurship.
