The list aims to “showcase the up-and-coming talent that would shape the energy industry and propel it forward.” The publication praised the honorees as “driven, thoughtful, talented, already accomplished in their own right and prepared to lead the energy industry into a promising future.”
This recognition is a testament to Conley’s skill and leadership in the energy field, having already participated in the Institute for Energy Law’s (IEL’s) 2024-2025 Leadership class and serving on Hart Energy’s Advisory Council for the 2025 Energy Capital Conference.

I am grateful to work for a firm that provides me the space to continue to grow my career in the energy space.”
