Kendra Clemons (kdclemons@hotmail.com)’s Summary

I've been drafting, negotiating and managing domestic and international corporate contracts for seven years now. Currently, I manage the Contracts program for an R&D operating company within Chevron U.S.A. (I also serve as the Export Compliance Officer, IP Manager, and Property Transfer advisor for the business). Prior to that, I negotiated sales and service contracts for technology and software companies (often with engineering and construction components) with customers in various industries, including oil & gas, pulp & paper, pharmaceuticals, energy and food production.

I have extensive government contracting experience, including with federal, municipal and foreign governments. I have worked with software licensing agreements and intellectual property indemnities, non-disclosure agreements, international distributor agreements, sales representative agreements and subcontracts. I have worked with cross-functional teams to develop proposals in response to RFPs (identifying risks in terms, scopes of work, and pricing structures) and to identify mitigation of risks.

Prior to transitioning to a corporate position, I was a contractor with various law firms in D.C. working on anti-trust litigation and mergers and acquisitions, including the mergers which created ExxonMobil and Verizon.
