It is my distinct pleasure this morning to introduce you to our esteemed Commencement Guest<br />

Speaker.<br />

I am proud to say that she is one <strong>of</strong> our many successful and influential alumni who are leaving<br />

an indelible mark on the world.<br />

Ms. <strong>Mariette</strong> <strong>Storr</strong> is intimately familiar with life at <strong>The</strong> <strong>College</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>The</strong> <strong>Bahamas</strong> and the<br />

hallmarks <strong>of</strong> our beloved institution. She was once a student here and has an Associate Degree<br />

in Journalism and Mass Communications. She later earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing<br />

from Howard University and an MBA from Nova Southeastern University.<br />

For the last 16 years, she has worked in the global energy industry, bringing her special brand <strong>of</strong><br />

leadership, energy and vision to the field.<br />

Ms. <strong>Storr</strong> joined Texaco <strong>Bahamas</strong> (now Chevron) in 1994 as a marketing representative and<br />

over the years assumed numerous positions <strong>of</strong> increasing responsibility for the local and<br />

international energy market. She has led the company’s brand and communications strategies<br />

for global aviation and steered policies with implications for government and public affairs in<br />

the Americas, Africa and Asia. She currently holds the position <strong>of</strong> Regional Coordinator <strong>of</strong><br />

Policy, Government and Public Affairs for Latin America.


When she’s not helping to secure Chevron’s position as one <strong>of</strong> the leading integrated energy<br />

companies, you can find her travelling, reading and cooking.<br />

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome now, Ms. <strong>Mariette</strong> <strong>Storr</strong>, a 1985 graduate <strong>of</strong> <strong>The</strong><br />
