This honorable award shines a spotlight on young individuals in Fort Worth and Tarrant County whose leadership, entrepreneurship and creativity has made a difference within their respective industry.

Autry possesses 18 years of oil and gas industry experience that ranges from working as a landman to owning and managing minerals.

These growth figures reflect Autry’s direct involvement in onboarding over fifty new clients, whose assets are worth $75 million in gross annual revenues.
