Jon M Queen's Bio:

Mr. Queen creates, structures and manages development of projects under the Kyoto Protocol’s Clean Development Mechanism, Joint Implementation Mechanism, as well as under the WWF’s Gold Standard and the Voluntary Carbon Standard. He has completed several carbon transactions and worked on green energy projects since entering the space in 2006.

Between 2006 and June of 2008, Mr. Jon M Queen was a Senior Vice President of the International Environmental Trading Group and its Eastern European Head. Prior to working at IETG, he was a member of the financial services team at John Hancock and an attorney at Latham & Watkins LLP, where he helped undertake the firm's climate change and greenhouse gas business development initiative.

Mr. Queen specializes in finance, law and economics; specifically trading transactions, project financing, contract drafting, legal analysis, and risk calculation.

(To clear up web confusion, the Jon M Queen who works in emissions trading, energy and carbon has no connection to Jon Bon Jovi the actor and musician. Nor to his Queen of New Orleans song.)
