White has nearly two decades of experience designing, installing, and managing photovoltaic, wind, and solar thermal projects. As Director of Business Development at Solar Energy International (SEI), a non-profit organization accelerating renewable energy technologies through education and technical assistance, White helped clients identify training opportunities for their teams.

“I’m thrilled to take on this new role as part of Fluke’s growing solar team, especially in a time when the industry is experiencing such positive momentum,” said White. “As new and veteran technicians alike are drawn to solar, it’s important that they have the right combination of tools and training to be effective, confident, and safe. I’m looking forward to sharing my experience on high-quality, code-compliant installation techniques with this growing workforce.”
