Meet The Founder

Leigh Haas is a political strategist, energy operator, and safety leader with experience across oil and gas, electric utility, renewables, and nuclear. She operates where policy, stakeholder pressure, regulatory friction, and field conditions converge. She brings executive judgment to complex infrastructure work and turns pressure into disciplined execution.

Her work sits at the intersection of policy, infrastructure, regulatory pressure, stakeholder pressure, and field reality.

Leigh began her career in Mississippi politics and later moved into energy and infrastructure, where she worked across major sectors including natural gas, oil and gas, electric transmission, fiber, cellular, solar, wind, battery storage, carbon capture, hydrogen, water utilities, and nuclear related work.

She brings a practical understanding of how projects move through landowners, field crews, executives, attorneys, regulators, elected officials, safety leaders, and business development teams.

That combination shapes Mockingbird’s operating philosophy.
