Joining the family business, Lauren Hendrix is now Director of Marketing for the HEX, LLC family of companies. After seven years at ASRC Energy Services, spearheading a rebranding as Director of Marketing and Proposals, Hendrix is taking a role at Cook Inlet’s only Alaskan-owned natural gas producer, led by her father, CEO and President John Hendrix.

In her new position, Hendrix works with Chief Commercial Officer Mark Slaughter on strategy, gas contracting, permitting, and communications for HEX Cook Inlet, Furie Operating Alaska, Cornucopia, and Corsair. This is a return to the natural gas business; Hendrix previously worked on the communications team for the Alaska Gasline Development Corporation.

Hendrix earned a bachelor’s degree in marketing from The University of Mississippi and a master’s degree in corporate public relations from Boston University. She also holds professional certificates in finance, drilling, and gas handling. She previously worked for MSI Communications, Brilliant Media Strategies, and NANA Management Services.

Hendrix enjoys cross-country skiing, walking Anchorage trails, designing, and painting. Her newborn daughter is also the namesake of a Cook Inlet platform: after a successful drilling campaign this summer, the company rechristened the Julius R monopod in the Kitchen Lights Unit “Allegra Leigh.”

ARCTIC DEVELOPMENT
March 2026
While all of Alaska is “arctic” to the rest of the country, our focus in the March 2026 Arctic Development special section is on projects more closely aligned to the actual Arctic, including an update on the Port of Nome deep-draft project, offshore oil activity, plans for projects on Savoonga and on the North Slope, and our cover story about the transportation industry’s efforts to operate responsibly in waters worldwide, which has direct applications to Arctic Seas. Also in this issue: learn more about the Chin’an Gaming Hall, USACE projects, the new Wildbirch Hotel, and the transportation and logistics of Girl Scout cookies. Enjoy!
