Shannon Miller co-founded Mainspring (formerly EtaGen) in 2010 and leads the company as CEO. While completing her doctorate at Stanford, where she was a National Science Foundation Fellow, Shannon received funding from the Global Climate Energy Project to advance her research on methods for improving efficiency of fuel conversion to electricity. In conducting this research, Shannon collaborated with Matt Svrcek to design and develop the early prototype that served as the foundation for Mainspring’s high-efficiency, linear generator technology. She holds a B.S., M.S. and Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from Stanford University and was recognized in 2012 by the MIT Technology Review as one of “35 Innovators Under 35″.
