Steve Bailey Email & Phone Number

I’ve spent four decades mastering the field of accounting in oil and gas, with a special focus on a complex and surprisingly exciting (yes, really) niche: severance taxes and sovereign royalties. I work with states across the country and at the national level.I also write and speak publicly about this and other topics. In Newsweek, I shared a personal story; in the Albuquerque Journal, I wrote about how New Mexico’s State Lands Office industry engagement set an example for the country.Businesses of all sizes are working to provide the energy that people count on every day. The last thing they need is to lose time and money getting lost in a labyrinth of constantly changing state and federal royalties and severance taxes. I help make this part of their business much easier and simpler, while also protecting public funds for schools, infrastructure, and more.After working for large corporations including oil giants, I moved into small businesses, and now serve as COO and Vice President of Savvy Oil & Gas Consulting. We partner with energy organizations to minimize their stress and boost their bottom line, leaving them with more funds and time to invest in projects such as drilling, green energy initiatives and enhanced safety measures. Our clients say:“In a matter of weeks, we were able to recoup approximately $2 million.”“They saved our company almost $1 million… Their process was very efficient and required very little time.”“I could not have imagined a better partnership. Their client service is truly bar none.”See more at our website, savvyogc.com.Why “Glitter Dad?”I like to wear bright, shiny clothes and shoes. When I joined Savvy and was going to attend a conference, I mentioned to our CEO, Sarah Magruder, that I would go shopping for a standard looking suit or blazer. She told me not to. “I don’t want you to blend in,” she told me. “I want you to stand out!” I’m also a proud dad of two daughters. So “Glitter Dad” became my nickname. I even have it as a personalized license plate on my Dodge Ram truck. Be who you are.
