About Me

I'm Kris, a Senior Energy Consultant with Freedom Solar Power. I joined Freedom Solar Power after a 15-year baseball career, having played and coached at the collegiate, professional, and international baseball levels. I’ve always had a strong passion for renewable energy, and my interest in solar grew after living in the Czech Republic, Australia, and New Zealand. While abroad, I felt the effects of the ongoing energy crisis and watched utility rates skyrocket, sometimes paying the same monthly for my utility and rent. To date, I have helped over 100 families go solar. I specialize in introducing, educating, and guiding my homeowners toward sensible and cost-efficient solutions for their homes. I strive to find immediate and long-term savings for my Florida clients by offsetting ever-rising utility bills, solar rebates, and solar incentives. After your installation is completed, I’ll be your dedicated point of contact to help you track and fully understand your system's output and savings.

Kris has been very attentive and helpful from the start. We had no clue how solar worked and he has been there to answer all our questions and if we had any concerns. He has been very patient with me and my family and made our process switching to solar smooth.

My husband and I worked with Kris for our solar needs. We hate dealing with sales people and can't stand "being pitched." Kris called promptly after our inquiry and offered to come talk to us about solar options and answer any questions we may have. The meeting was great and Kris is super knowledgeable. He didn't shove the product down our throat and made us super comfortable. Kris is definitely the reason we chose Freedom for our solar. He has been continually in contact with us through the process and keeping us in the loop with the progress of our project. He is a total rockstar.
