I am a litigation attorney and an oil & gas executive. ---As majority owner of Gauthier, Houghtaling LLP, I manage the law firm I began at as a file room clerk. The firm, with a 46 year old legacy is credited as paving the way to the $365 billion dollar U.S. tobacco settlement, and has won settlements and verdicts in an additional $4.7 Billion. I also serve as the CEO of American Ethane. On November 9th I was honored to sign a 26 Billion dollar ethane gas deal with the Nanshan Group before President Trump and President Xi Jinping. Since that time we have signed conditionally binding deals to sell 7.2mta of ethane to three ethylene to Ethane cracker projects in China. In March of 2015, our company completed engineering of a US ethane export terminal with an annual export capacity of 10 million tons. In 2014, my career as an attorney and entrepreneur was featured in an hour long CNN documentary. My work has been featured in a documentary on Frontline, and appeared in the New York Times, the Wallstreet Journal, USA Today, MSNBC, Fox News and more than 100 print and TV media.
