In 2007, he was named Managing Director of Transmission Business Services and Strategy.

Napoli graduated from Stevens Institute of Technology with a bachelor's degree in engineering and holds an MBA in finance from Seton Hall University, along with certificates in Mergers and Acquisitions from UCLA, and Finance from Dartmouth College.
