Heart of the Treasury

Meet the people in the State Treasurer’s Office whose public service inspires us and is making a difference.

Meet our February employee of the month, David Palsha! David is a PACE analyst with the California Alternative Energy & Advanced Transportation Financing Authority (CAEATFA).

David has gone ‘above and beyond’ by assisting his colleagues in processing extensive reports when the unit was short-staffed. He willingly took on a workload outside his general work. His initiative and determination have been great assets to CAEATFA, where he performs complex analyses involving various financing mechanisms, including Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) financing structures and the PACE Loss Reserve Program. He also conducts research and analysis that is focused on program-related issues, including applications, program documents and reporting activities. In addition, David acts as a liaison with program applicants and participants, other government entities, consultants, stakeholders and the public answering inquiries and promoting program activities. Of course, he provides great customer service.

Congratulations David!
