Newly confirmed Energy Secretary Chris Wright announced dozens of top officials Thursday, including an adviser from the fracking services firm Wright led before taking the Cabinet post.
Audrey Barrios, now listed as adviser to the secretary, worked at Liberty Energy for more than 12 years, most recently as director of external affairs, according to her LinkedIn page. She joins a DOE team of Republican stalwarts and Trump veterans who Wright said would help deliver his “energy dominance” vision.
“President Trump has outlined a bold and ambitious agenda for restoring American energy dominance, and this exceptional team of leaders will be essential to delivering that agenda in this critical moment,” Wright said in a statement.
The list released Thursday includes many names already reported by POLITICO’s E&E News.
