EXPERIENCE

EDISON MISSION ENERGY, Irvine, CA 1986 – 2005
(A developer/owner/operator of electric power generation facilities with a trading operation in Boston and a technical/plant operations office in Chicago. Before the sale of its international assets in 2004, Edison Mission Energy also owned generation facilities in 10 foreign countries and had offices in Europe and Asia. Edison Mission Energy is a subsidiary of Edison International, which also owns Southern California Edison Company, one of the largest electric utility companies in the U.S.)

Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (1999 – 2005)
Chief Financial Officer for Edison Mission Energy and three affiliates that are also SEC-reporting companies. Led financial affairs during periods of strong growth (1999 acquisitions totaled $10 billion) and periods of asset sales and tight credit conditions. Directed the activities for accounting, tax, risk management and treasury operations. At different times, also supervised the human resources, information technology, market analysis, and office services departments.
• Negotiated agreements and documentation for more than 17 financings that raised $14 billion. Many of the transactions involved complex, non-recourse financing structures for subsidiary companies.
• Generated financial forecasts and communicated key parameters and outputs to both Edison management and investors. The company’s significant exposure to fluctuating power prices required statistical analyses to evaluate earnings impact, potential collateral requirements and the impact of hedging strategies.
• Responded to the credit crisis in the energy industry by instituting a rigorous approach to managing cash flows, refinancing maturing debt, and ultimately selling assets to permanently reduce debt in capital structure. Sale of international businesses in 2004 for nearly $3 billion completed strategy which allowed reduction of debt and provided $1.5 billion of liquidity.

• Provided leadership through committees that oversaw new investments and allocations of capital, invested pension funds, and managed the trading activities in the U.S., England and Australia. Served on the Board of Directors for a number of Edison Mission Energy affiliate companies including Contact Energy Company, one of the largest public companies in New Zealand (NZ$ 1.276 billion in revenues).
• Maintained effective internal controls over financial reporting (no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses found by internal or external auditors). Provided Sarbanes-Oxley certifications for the four SEC-reporting entities: Edison Mission Energy, Mission Energy Holding Company, Midwest Generation, LLC and EME Homer City Generation L.P.


Treasurer (1992 – 2000, 2002 – 2004)
Responsible for all aspects of corporate finance including capital raising, interfacing with banks and other financial institutions, cash management, wire transfers and bank account reconciliations. Arranged foreign exchange hedges, developed company hurdle rates and investment guidelines, compiled long-term financial projections, and acted as the primary liaison with credit rating agencies. Elected Vice President in 1994.

Manager of Corporate Finance (1989 – 1992)
Structured and arranged corporate and project financing activities. Managed treasury operations for a rapidly growing company.

Financial Analyst (1986 – 1989)
