Before founding A&A Advocates, Inc. in 2008, Mr. Adkins served in the Oklahoma House of Representatives for eight years. He is the past Chairman of the Energy, Utility, Aerospace, and Technology Committee for the Oklahoma House of Representatives.

Mr. Adkins' responsibilities included jurisdiction and oversight of Oklahoma's oil and gas industry, telecommunications and technology, mining, aerospace industry, as well as, all electric and water utilities. He was either the principal author or had direct responsibility for almost every major initiative that fell within his jurisdiction and became law in Oklahoma during his four years as chairman.

Adkins' respect, from both sides of the aisle, enabled him to carry dozens of pieces of legislation and never lose a bill either in committee or on the floor during his eight years in the House of Representatives.

Regarded as one of Oklahoma's leaders on energy policy, Mr. Adkins has testified before the Environment and Public Works Committee of the United States Senate with respect to the energy industry and its relation to carbon emissions and climate change.

Mr. Adkins' legislative career was highlighted by being twice named Oklahoma Independent Petroleum Association legislator of the year. He was also named the Higher Education legislative newcomer of the year, American Royalty Council legislator of the year, and Industrial Electric Consumers legislator of the year. He was selected to participate in Leadership Oklahoma and is now a lifetime member of the organization.

In addition, Dennis served on the powerful Appropriations and Budget Committee, as well as, the Revenue and Tax, Environment and Natural Resources, and Public Health committees in the House of Representatives. Prior to the legislature, Mr. Adkins served the State of Oklahoma in professional positions within the Department of Corrections, Department of Human Services and Department of Rehabilitative Services.

He graduated from Northeastern State University in Tahlequah, Oklahoma with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science.
