Jerry Wehust, Site Manager at our Spinning Spur 1 Wind Project in Texas, is a longtime practitioner and instructor of Judo. Over the years, he has even had the opportunity to meet and train with Olympians. Jerry shares that Olympians' competitive spirit is both motivating and contagious — and he believes that surrounding oneself with greatness is a good way to inspire one's own high standards. Judo has also taught Jerry invaluable lessons for all aspects of life including the belief that being down does not mean being out. This resilience mindset has helped shape Jerry's approach to both personal and professional endeavors, and he aims to inspire students to embrace challenges and persevere. #BecomeTheEnergy that moves you. #EnergyAtPlay
