“Coming out of business school I said, you know what, probably I mean I love this industry, love the people. People is the incredible part.”
“I joined a private equity firm making investments in oilfield service companies. After two years, I realized this really isn't my cup of tea either, so I joined one of their portfolio companies full-time.”
