While at the State Treasury she served as the State Treasurer's representative on the Texas Bond Review Board and as a member of the Texas Comptroller's first Performance Review team. More recently she worked for the Texas Department of Transportation as an associate general counsel specializing in debt issuance, investment matters, and the State Infrastructure Bank loan program.
