In today’s episode, I sit down with Dave Schell, a former NFL player turned founder whose work in digital electricity is reshaping how mission critical power is built for the future. We talk about his journey from the gridiron to the energy sector, the fifteen-year path that led him to innovate inside an industry that hasn’t changed in a century, and why AI factories and data centers are now at the center of his focus. Dave shares how niche expertise, clear communication, and real humility shaped his comeback after years of ups, downs, and reinvention.
