Chief Executive Officer, Infrastructure
Our mission is to own highly contracted and regulated businesses that generate long-term, consistent growth with minimal variability
If executed well, this will lead to annual FFO per unit growth of 10%+

Our full-cycle business strategy entails:
|
Deploy capital at or above 12-15% target returns |
Crystalize value through capital recycling |
Maintain a strong financial position |
