I manage contractor programs, scheduling, invoicing, and customer-facing operations.
What I'm looking for
At StratComm, I independently oversee the Vocational Expert Program, coordinating availability, scheduling, and monthly invoices while working closely with Social Security personnel. I also support the Verbatim Hearing Recorder Program by arranging credentialing and training appointments and monitoring hearing coverage.
I've progressed from Assistant Project Manager to Senior Project Manager, managing 45+ independent contractors, handling invoice disputes, onboarding SSA locations, and enforcing program procedures. My background in customer service, sales, and shift leadership has shaped an energetic, encouraging management style that thrives under fast-paced, high-stress conditions.
