Jay Young | Episode 46

Jay Young has a lifelong passion for oil and gas exploration and is the fourth generation of his family to dedicate their career to the industry. His affinity for the oil patch led Mr. Young to found King Operating Corporation. King’s business model is designed to minimize risk by acquiring and developing in areas with a long history of producing oil and gas. Mr. Young and his associates developed a unique method for the oil and gas business to acquire scalable assets in a proven field, utilize equity to start and debt to prove up the field and divest to a larger company. Complimenting his professional endeavors, his wife Michelle and four daughters represent focal points in his life pursuits. An avid Texas Rangers fan and former partial-owner, Mr. Young has fond memories of the MLB team’s run for the World Series in 2010 and 2011. Additionally, Mr. Young enjoys participating in local and national philanthropic organizations such as serving on the Executive Board of Directors for Circle Ten Council (Boy Scouts of America) and his alma mater, Angelo State University’s Foundation Board where he graduated with a BBA degree in 1985.
