Joy E. Seitz, CEO, American Solar & Roofing
Background: Joy Seitz is a visionary leader shaping the future of energy through innovation, culture, and cross-industry insight. With venture capital experience and a passion for craftspeople, she champions ethical partnerships, executive growth, and hands-on leadership, all while exploring how AI, media, and climate change intersect with renewable energy’s next frontier.
Source of pride: “I advocate fiercely for customer-owned solar, traveling to D.C. to protect the 25D tax credit and ensure everyday Americans, not corporations, benefit from clean energy. At home, I invest in executive coaching, align vendors with our values, and honor the craftspeople who build America. I love everyday humans do everyday things.”
Professional advice: “Own your vision and lead with purpose. Learn how systems work, trust your instincts, and stay true to your values. Invest in your growth and surround yourself with people who reflect your integrity. Leadership isn’t about fitting in; it’s about building something worth standing for. You belong. Lead like you believe it.”
Surprising fact: “I don’t want to invest in a new car because I don’t like all the new technology instead, I keep investing in better, louder, stereo equipment. Rock on.”
