About

I'm a results-oriented engineer with extensive experience in natural gas, liquefied natural gas (LNG), and oil operations. My work spans field operations and control-room management, with a record of cross-functional leadership across operations, commercial, and HSE teams in Mexico and the United States.

I bring a strategic and hands-on approach to driving operational efficiency — administrative and financial oversight, personnel supervision, and continuous-improvement initiatives aligned with corporate objectives. Currently leading operations at Henry Hill Oil Services, serving US and Mexican energy assets.
