United StatesWhat I'm looking for
With over 30 years of experience in government procurement and contracts, I have a proven track record of driving growth and operational excellence.

My commitment to team development is evident as I have successfully mentored senior-level financial analysts, fostering a culture of continuous improvement.
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated strong project management skills, leading multi-module developments and implementing innovative processes that enhance productivity. My role as a Federal Accessibility Compliance Officer involved cross-agency initiatives that ensured compliance and improved accessibility for all stakeholders.

My leadership in strategic sourcing initiatives has not only saved millions but has also set benchmarks for future projects.
