Jamie previously worked with DCCM, where she served as a Senior Project Manager and played a key role in delivering complex gas pipeline and utility relocation projects for major utility providers throughout the Houston region. During her earlier tenure, she supported numerous large‑scale pipeline and system-improvement projects for CenterPoint Energy. Her project experience includes oversight and design leadership of gas lines ranging from 2 to 18 inches in diameter, including plastic and steel infrastructure.
