With 30 years at Halliburton, Monica is currently a Proposal Manager at Boots & Coots, a sub-product service line of Halliburton. An avid huntress, Monica’s favorite hunting destination is South Africa, which she considers her home away from home. When she’s not in the field, Monica enjoys fishing, reading, photography, rodeos, traveling, and spending time with her family. A passionate advocate for introducing women and youth to the outdoors, she actively mentors others, encouraging them to explore hunting and fishing.
