Our Team

CJ Evans, Managing Director
CJ has helped more than 250 companies -- from startups to large, publicly-traded companies -- secure more than $15 billion in grants, loan guarantees, and project financing. He has been involved in every phase of project development, at every technology readiness level, through engineering and design; community outreach; securing IP, licenses, and supply and offtake agreements; raising equity; beginning construction; and moving through commissioning and startup. He has led teams of subject matter experts to prepare feasibility studies, technical assessments, and fiscal and economic impact analyses, and carry out risk analysis and due diligence. He is a registered Capitol Hill lobbyist and co-founder of an advocacy organization for the alternative fuels, renewable chemicals, biobased products, and synthetic aviation fuel industries, which has grown into the second-largest bioeconomy lobbying group in the U.S.

Goran Nikolic, Project Director
Goran is a dig-into-the-details, what-is-needed-to-get-this-done project manager. He also is a graphic designer, branding expert, and advertising, marketing, and corporate communication specialist, skills that can help project developers ensure their documents are visually engaging, communicate key information quickly, succinctly, and effectively, and hone in on the interests, requirements, and preferences of the capital providers to whom their documents are being provided.

Sonja Fahy, Executive Administrator
Sonja is the "glue" that holds together the PFA team, its advisors, and the allied companies, partners, and projects with whom they work. Upbeat, positive, and outgoing, she has a can-do, let's-get-this-done approach, handling PFA's administrative details and helping set priorities, manage workflow, and keep things moving and on track.
