SUMMARY
I have spent the last 40 years working in the oilfield services industry in a variety of positions all with the same company as I developed my skills and experience. I have led teams as small as 3 people, and as large as 90 people. I have worked in multiple countries training, developing, motivating personnel while inspiring my team to excel and advance their own careers. My philosophy on leadership is simple: work harder than the people who report to you, never lie, and celebrate/reward success more than you penalize failures.
