I became member of senior level management of a major integrated U.S. energy corporation during my 22-year career there. I am now practicing law as a solo attorney; however, I stay abreast of the oil and gas industry and technical developments in the industry. I was Treasurer of the SPE student chapter at Univ. of Texas during 1969-1970 school year, and Director of the East Texas chapter during 1977-1978. My advice to current students is to do your best to manage the transition from high school to college. For me, the transition was somewhat difficult in that I was thrust into a new environment with very few acquaintances, and the academic challenges were many during the first year; much perseverance was required to develop healthy study habits in order to succeed.
