I recently retired from Shell Oil after serving over thirty years in the energy industry. My career was concentrated in the downstream business; serving various roles in Shell Pipeline, oil products distribution, environmental management, and marketing engineering. I accrued significant joint venture experience, serving on numerous corporate boards.
My final role at Shell was the Global Manager, Supply & Distribution Joint Ventures.
I have a Civil Engineering Degree and am a registered professional engineer in the State of Texas.
