Portfolio Manager at Solventum who generated $2M+ in annual service revenue through contract renewals.

At Solventum, I direct 40+ Field Service Engineers supporting regulated technical equipment for government, industrial, and commercial customers. By reviewing and implementing the contract renewal process, I generated $2M+ in annual service revenue.

At 3M, I ran program management for new fire industry products, coordinating electrical, software, and mechanical engineering requirements. I also extended SCBA field support by establishing mobile service in Pasadena, TX, adding 70+ accounts in 12 months.

As a New Product Development Project Manager at 3M, I guided multidisciplinary project teams developing firefighting SCBA and carried P&L responsibility for projects valued at $4.5M–$10M+. Risk analysis tools helped keep every product approval on its established timeline, reaching a 100% approval rating.

In the U.S. Air Force Reserve, I briefed general officers, controlled approximately $3M in mobility equipment, and commanded units at three bases. I’m trained as a Six Sigma Black Belt and hold a Master Certificate in Applied Project Management.
