Ari Goldstein

Founder and CEO

Breezy Point Energy founder and CEO began with a degree from Fordham University. Working from the ground up at Sony, he started with an entry-level job in the warehouse before quickly being promoted to management, traveling to satellite offices across the country to oversee their sales and promotion departments. After eight years, he was recruited back to New York City to expand a family-owned boutique public relations firm. He increased their annual billings from $240K to $18 million, diversifying their portfolio to offer marketing, advertising, social media, and event production. He also grew their initial team of 3 people to 30 employees and interns with offices in New York and Los Angeles.

Goldstein played an instrumental role in raising tens of millions of dollars for charities including Habitat for Humanity, MoveOn.org, Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights, amfAR, Wounded Warrior Project, Jewelers for Children, and STOMP Out Bullying. He successfully navigated the company and its diverse client base through the dot-com bubble burst, September 11, and the 2008 recession.

From there, he launched a successful independent consulting firm that included a renewable energy wind project in New York State, despite the often-insurmountable barriers for an outsider to break into the industry. He landed a subsequent project in Montana, which he attributes to being in the right place at the right time.

Under his direction, Breezy Point Energy is on a trajectory to change the wind and solar power industry by producing and providing 100% renewable energy on-site, 24/7, 365 days a year, supplying power directly to high-usage data centers without the use of the grid. He is also the guiding force pushing for humanitarian support of non-profits that help children and work to eradicate homelessness and hunger.
