"It was a very happy chapter of my life,” recalls Jesus, who is now the Terminal Manager for our La Paz, Mexico, liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal. “I was always active and involved in sports, whether it was baseball, basketball, tennis, karate or swimming.”

The strongest influence in his life has always been his mother.

"She inspired me to perform enthusiastically, with passion and effort," he shares.

Today, Jesus brings that enthusiasm to us at New Fortress Energy, where he coordinates and supervises the supply chain for our La Paz plant. He manages LNG supply and deliveries for marine, port, land logistics, regasification, and power generation operations customers. With more than 25 years of experience in the hydrocarbons industry, he is excited at this unique opportunity to think outside the box, embrace innovation, and keep learning.

"Our La Paz operations are making history in the LNG market with our proprietary ISOFlex transportation system,” he says. “I am proud to be part of this first-of-its-kind operation that is positively impacting my community, and I’m energized to be able to bring LNG to places where it is needed most with efficient and environmentally friendly projects. I’m looking forward to continuing to create solutions to improve our world with clean energy and generate workspaces to grow NFE’s presence.”

Jesus also takes immense pride in the family he and his wife are building. He is dedicated to instilling a culture of effort and commitment in his daughters and son, hoping to see these values reflected in their lives.

With a life dedicated to innovation, community impact, and family values, Jesus is a shining example of an unwavering commitment to powering the future with excellence – and positive energy.
