My career shows a commitment to building – from oversight of global oil & gas construction projects, to commercial development initiatives spanning multiple continents, to business evolution from startup through IPO attainment. As an executive leader who “speaks the language” of technical, operational, and financial, I connect activities across the business to fuel strategy and accelerate goals. I am at home collaboratively setting strategy, interacting with investors, chairing steering committees, and rolling up my sleeves to drive projects through successful completion. Executive Profile: - Executive construction expertise spanning global operations, financing, project management, commercial leadership, EHS&Q, business development, and sales & marketing. - Experience bringing an oil & gas services organization through IPO attainment and rapid growth culminating in exceedingly profitable divestiture. - Leader of aggressive growth initiatives and joint ventures throughout global markets including U.S., Gulf of Mexico, West Africa, Middle East, South America, Latin America, China, and Southeast Asia. - Full oversight of global onshore and offshore construction projects involving oil & gas infrastructure and energy transition, featuring up to 31 vessels and 4,000 frontline team members.
