Russ Sumpter

Fort Worth Texas

Served in the Air Force from 1999-2005. After this extremely rewarding 6 years I started work in the oil industry in West Texas. The collapse of the oil market in 2008 sent me to Colorado and then to Pennsylvania in 2009. In 2012, I left Pennsylvania and started working internationally as a project manager in various countries within Africa. In June of 2014, I moved back to the U.S. and accepted a position as North American Field Operations Manager for the Encapso division of Solazyme. Presently I am living in Oklahoma City but spend 90% of my time traveling to fulfill my duties.
