Tara SimpsonCEO

Tara Simpson has been deeply involved in the oil industry for much of her life. Growing up in a family that benefited from successful oil production sparked her early passion for the business. She graduated from Texas A&M University in 2001 and has built a long and diverse career in investment management.

In 2003, Tara began working with investors on large-scale real estate projects across North Texas. In 2007, she transitioned that investment expertise into the oil and gas sector, serving as Vice President at Magna Resources LLC in Dallas, where she advised investors on oil drilling opportunities. In 2013, she became an executive at another oil drilling company, focusing on drilling prospects and investor relations.

Tara founded Alliance Petroleum Interests with a clear vision: to create transparent, well-structured oil and gas investment opportunities while building long-term relationships with investors.

Outside of work, Tara enjoys spending time with her family and her three children. She grew up rodeoing in her youth and today stays active through competitive tennis, which she plays regularly.
