Client Strategy Manager, NRG Business Sales Operations; East Region

Melissa Wright comes to NRG with a Bachelor of Science in marketing from Smeal College of Business at Penn State, with a minor in supply Chain management. She originally worked in logistics but turned to the energy sector because she had followed gas and oil industry fundamentals working in fleet car sales and found the sector both interesting and challenging. She learned the industry in sales and gained expertise in the market that now supports her focus on large commercial and industrial customers within PJM and the Carolinas. She manages large portfolios, provides data analytics, regulatory updates, and cost projections to help with purchasing decisions. She also enjoys talking with customers about their sustainability goals as interest grows in that sector. Melissa loves to draw, go to the beach with family and friends, and cheer for the Philadelphia Eagles. She enjoys a hearty bowl of pasta, the company of her mini goldendoodle Daisy, and proudly participates in NRG’s Women in Power resource group.
