“With her unique, versatile background combining competition and energy, Veronica is a wonderful addition to Brattle,” said Brattle President & Principal David L. Sunding. “We are thrilled to add her expertise to our work supporting clients in Mexico, and more broadly in Latin America and beyond.”
As a former Undersecretary of Energy Planning and Transition in Mexico, she has worked on all aspects of the electric power sector, including generation, transmission, ancillary services, distribution, and retailing.
