👋 Hello, I’m Freddie.

This Substack is where I share what I’m learning and building. I love scaling companies. To date, I’ve started four, and two were acquired. I also angel invest, backing exceptional teams with bold ideas.

I believe that reshoring manufacturing, scaling advanced automation, and securing critical supply chains are not just industrial goals, but they’re national priorities.

That’s why I’m building Maya, an energy infrastructure company that will reindustrialize America’s grid and unlock the power needed for the next century.

The U.S. grid is facing an unprecedented perfect storm of events, and the technologies we choose to deploy in the next decade will determine whether we can meet the rising demand for power from AI, the electrification of everything, and the reshoring of manufacturing.

Our vision is to scale energy infrastructure gigafactories across the United States. During the journey, I’ll cover the intersections of bits + atoms, policy, automation, technology, supply chains, and the hard realities of making physical things at scale.

If you’re an investor, operator, engineer, policymaker, or just someone who cares about how we power the future, I hope you’ll follow along. The grid is everyone’s business, and it’s time we started treating it that way!
