We’re thrilled to announce the addition of our newest Senior Advisor, Angela Barrow. Barrow is a globally respected leader in Crisis Leadership, Business Continuity, and Organizational Resilience, bringing 30+ years of experience across emergency management, crisis operations, disaster recovery, and executive advisory support.
We sat down with Angela to talk about why she chose to join PRATUS and what she envisions for our future.
“After nearly two decades leading global emergency management at Chevron, I’ve worked with a wide range of crisis and incident management tools. Each one brought something useful to the table, but most still left critical gaps in how teams coordinate, communicate, and make decisions under pressure. When I was introduced to PRATUS, I immediately recognized a different level of thoughtfulness in how the platform was designed.
My turning point came when I saw how PRATUS brings together the three things crisis leaders fight for during every major incident: clarity, speed, and coordination. It wasn’t just another dashboard or communication tool. It was a platform built with a deep understanding of how crises actually unfold — the chaos, the information gaps, the pressure to make decisions with imperfect data.
That was the moment I realized: This is a system I would have wanted during some of the toughest days of my career.”
“My personal mission has always been simple: help organizations protect people, assets, and reputation by strengthening their resilience. PRATUS reflects that same philosophy. It doesn’t overwhelm teams with complexity; it empowers them with structure, intelligence, and confidence.
It aligns with my belief that technology should support human judgment, not replace it. In a crisis, people make the difference — PRATUS just gives them the tools to do it better.”
"Across global operations, I saw the same challenges repeat themselves:
Many organizations end up relying on vendors to run their own systems — a dependency that limits independence and drives up operational costs.
PRATUS breaks that cycle.
Reducing Dependency and Increasing Independence
One of the most compelling advantages of PRATUS is that it’s built on existing Microsoft platforms — tools organizations already know, trust, and use every day. That means:
Instead of forcing teams into a new, unfamiliar ecosystem, PRATUS meets them where they already are. That familiarity translates into confidence, speed, and operational independence — exactly what crisis teams need when the pressure is high."
“What excites me most is the opportunity to help shape a platform that can truly transform how organizations prepare for and respond to crises. PRATUS is built by people who understand the mission, not just the technology. That alignment matters.
I’m energized by the chance to bring my experience from Chevron and MiraTrac to a team that is genuinely committed to innovation, operational excellence, and protecting communities and critical infrastructure.”
“Oil and gas organizations operate in environments where risk is constant, and global coordination is essential. PRATUS elevates crisis response and business continuity by:
Prior to founding MiraTrac Resilience Solutions, Inc., Barrow served in several leadership roles at Chevron, finalizing her 20-year tenure as Manager of Global Emergency Preparedness and Response. Here, Barrow oversaw Chevron’s global Emergency Management Program and led their Worldwide Emergency Response Team.
Beyond her corporate roles, she has held officer, executive, and chair positions in industry boards and committees, including:
Barrow’s entire career has been built around helping organizations prepare for the unexpected. She has led teams through complex crisis scenarios, guided executives during their most challenging moments, and helped global operations emerge stronger and more resilient. Her experience directly supports our mission at PRATUS: to save lives and protect the environment.
The addition of Angela Barrow as a Senior Advisor to PRATUS strengthens not only our capabilities, but also the industries and communities we serve.
Sean Griffin, PRATUS Co-Founder and CEO shared his excitement, stating: “Angela understands crisis leadership on a global scale. She’s been in the room during the big decisions; the ones that define safety, continuity, and resilience. Having her voice on our team makes PRATUS even stronger for the energy sector and any organization that needs operational clarity during high‑consequence events.”
Sharing this sentiment about the influence Barrow will have on PRATUS, Roger Coleman, PRATUS Co-Founder and President, shared: “Angela’s ability to bridge real-world crisis operations with modern resilience technology makes her the perfect fit for our team. She’s spent decades seeing what actually works, and that insight directly informs how we shape PRATUS for the oil and gas industry and beyond.”
PRATUS delivers what high‑risk, high‑consequence operations need most: clarity, speed, and coordination when every second counts.
