J. “Jim” Teague, co-CEO of Enterprise’s general partner. “Her knowledge of the energy industry spans from the wellhead to the burner tip, consistent with the breadth of our integrated midstream system. She will provide additional insights to the equity capital markets, which will be complementary to our board.”
