Mary Horsey is part of our incredible research team here at E Source, and she’s a manager in the Technology Assessment group. One of the reasons that our researchers are so amazing is that they truly have a passion for the subject matters they’re responsible for—and that couldn’t be more true about Mary (just look at her answer to my question about something most people don’t know about her). One of the things I love about Mary is her stories. We attend Toastmasters meetings together, and I’ve learned some pretty interesting things about her, specifically about how mischievous she was as a kid. You can tell she hasn’t lost that trait: Mary has an adventurous spirit and an obvious love of life.

Nickname: None that I know of!

Hometown: Monroe, Wisconsin

What you do at E Source: I’m on the Technology Assessment Team, and I research existing and emerging energy-efficiency technologies to determine whether they’re appropriate for our utility program managers and corporate energy managers to include in their programs and facilities.

Why you like working at E Source: I like working with other people who are curious, interesting, and care about making a difference. And I appreciate the opportunity to work collaboratively.

Something most people don’t know about you: Right after college, I spent six months sailing up the Nile from Cairo to Wadi Halfa in a 27-foot wooden felucca, studying water management. And I love boilers (residential, commercial, and industrial)!
