About Telos

Core team.

Brad Root
President

Brad Root

As President of Telos EV, Brad spearheads origination, site selection, and deal structuring across the network. Drawing on his tenure at Tesla and a deep commercial real estate background, he seamlessly bridges the gap between complex real estate deal mechanics and developing EV charging sites that feel like a cohesive property amenity rather than an afterthought.

Backed by a $150M+ track record across more than 80 transactions, Brad has led site selection and development for national brands including Chipotle, Starbucks, Valvoline, Wawa, Sheetz, and more. He evaluates every property with an operator’s mindset, structuring turnkey deals that boost NOI and maximize long-term asset value.
