Summary written by Content Correspondent Genneca Houser
We have the wonderful opportunity to talk to Stephanie Canales with Cougar Drilling Solutions. She discussed a little bit about Cougar Drilling and her role as well as the difficulties of starting her position during one of the most tumultuous times in recent history.
We talk about new opportunities from surprising places, including a promotion with Domestic Energy Producers Alliance (DEPA) and a new position working with the Department of Energy. Stephanie also takes a moment to mention the seven different pillars the Equity and Energy Program that she, as an ambassador, helps to bring to the public.
This would, of course, include helping to show the public the variety
of opportunities within the Energy Industry across so many different
backgrounds.
“It’s great to be able to
collaborate with people on the government side and to learn more about
how we can kind of bridge our talents and help more people get into
energy because, you know, it’s a national security issue to be energy
independent and have people be competent and qualified to be able to
carry out the jobs in the US.” – Stephanie Canales
STEM Enhancement is really a name for getting people interested in
different STEM programs, and it was the one of the seven pillars that
Stephanie took an extra moment to discuss. We then went on to talk about
women’s roles in the Energy Industry, the shock of some to find out how
many women are involved in the industry, and the desire to see more
ladies taking an interest in the Energy Industry or in any STEM field.
Not just women, though – There are projects and programs to help get
youth excited about the different parts of the STEM world as well.
“There’s bountiful information
available to people and we wanna’ just share that so that people have
those resources to be able to take advantage of what’s available and
learn more and get into a fantastic industry. You know, Energy, Oil and
Gas, whatever you have an interest in, I mean, there’s something for
everybody…” – Stephanie Canales
