       In my last fourteen years at Liberty Energy, our team expanded   
       the shale revolution to include oil production as well as   
       natural gas. I also participated in an effort to apply shale   
       technology to unlock next-generation geothermal. Most   
       recently, I worked to help launch small modular reactors, a   
       promising solution to support an Al-driven economy.   
      
   Also note that the February 2021 Texas power grid failure was a   
   major disaster where freezing temperatures caused over 4 million   
   people to lose electricity, leading to more than 240, and   
   potentially up to 702, deaths.   
      
   That was only one month after Biden was inaugurated.   
      
   And as of January 2026, despite improvements and increased battery   
   storage, the grid still faces challenges during severe weather,   
   with the Department of Energy requesting that high-demand   
   facilities use backup generators.
