Episode Synopsis
Today we spoke with Will Phelan, a graduate of Rice University working in Corporate Development at Electric Hydrogen Co. Will begins the episode by telling us how he got his start in energy, and more specifically, green hydrogen. He shares a useful exercise to help students pick their vertical, and gives advice on how to approach this process of finding your niche. Will then explains why he took an interest in green hydrogen and how he used cold-outreach to find experiences and opportunities in the space. We then discussed how students can use a similar strategy to find companies they want to work for and show the team that they will be a valuable asset. Finally, the episode concludes with a discussion around misconceptions about entrepreneurship, advice on finding your passions in energy, and what's next for Will!
