David Buckner

President at Solar Energy Systems

As a founding member of SES, David has been with the company since its inception in 1998. His first two years building SES were spent after-hours “moonlighting” on his day job. He’d been a government bonds broker for a Wall Street brokerage firm and enjoyed most of it, but yearned for more diversity in his daily activity, including time outside. And he discovered he loved being up on the roofs. So he quit his Wall Street gig in 2000 to dedicate everything to SES.

Today, as President, David does everything from meeting with clients and vendors to taking delivery if no one is available or if he just needs some exercise. He believes that life is a team sport.

David has a Bachelor of Science in Finance from Fordham University and is certified by the North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners (NABCEP). He was actually one of the first to take and pass the test back when NABCEP began testing in 2004.
