Based out of London, I work with my team in 19 countries throughout South Europe. I have been an energy sector executive for 20 years and continue to enjoy our ever-changing industry. I have 3 children, 11,17 & 20, and been a guest speaker for two classrooms. I found the key to engaging students is to have a two-way dialogue with plenty of pictures and several questions. I'd be happy to encourage young people in today's world to pursue a career in the energy sector. Thank you for your consideration, Jody
