Hi Caroline,
Hope you are well! Pete asked that I reach out to you, we are looking to find a date for Secretary Duffy to have dinner with Shell USA, Inc. President Colette Hirstius. She is based in New Orleans, but we are happy to organize for them to meet in DC, will just look for a few dates to coordinate. Pete mentioned that Sec. Duffy has a bit of travel Sept/Oct so looking at likely mid-October. Let me know if you have a few weeknights that might work for them to meet for dinner, and I can work with our team to see when we can have Colette in DC.
Appreciate your help, and let me know if you'd like to connect over the phone.
Thank you! Alana
