Summary of Candidate Professional/Civic Background:
Four terms as State Representative in HD135 (Northwest Harris County), and worked for over 25 years in and around oilfields as an engineer, working around the world, and in Texas, on construction projects in the oil industry.
Why would you be an effective leader in this role?
I am the only candidate for Railroad Commission (RRC) in 2026 with both an energy industry technical background and experience, and also Legislative experience, and I will actually fight for consumer protections like affordability, reliability, and sustainability. My most likely opponents will uphold the status quo and do the industry’s bidding. I believe the RRC must work to lower power bills for Texas working families while we strengthen our energy infrastructure and grow our global energy leadership.
What are three platform points that are important to you?
Reliable Power: Ensuring we produce enough energy to meet the demands of the Texas Grid
Affordability: Stopping the price gauging on power bills that all of us are paying for their failure during Winter Storm Uri
Good Jobs: Standing up to Trump and other Republicans who are undermining nearly half a million oil and gas jobs in Texas by importing massive amounts of foreign oil
