Kate Fay Joins M.J. Bradley & Associates

M.J. Bradley & Associates LLC (MJB&A), a leading strategic environmental consulting firm, is pleased to announce that Kate Fay has joined the firm as a Senior Vice President. In this position, Kate will help expand MJB&A’s climate and air policy services for the firm’s energy sector clients, particularly those involved with upstream oil and gas. “We have worked with Kate for years, and she brings proven exceptional skills and expertise we want to support our clients in their corporate strategic planning and public policy development and implementation,” said Michael Bradley.

Kate, respected across multiple sectors and the investment community, has 40 years of experience in environmental policy design, analysis and implementation, particularly as it applies to energy development.
