What I'm looking for

I’m seeking roles where military discipline, compliance expertise, and client-facing leadership create immediate organizational impact—building SOPs, managing high-volume workflows, and improving accuracy, timeliness, and readiness through practical systems.

I’m an operations-driven professional with 10+ years of experience across military aviation, federal regulatory compliance, business development, and human services. I build scalable SOPs and manage high-volume, high-stakes workflows under stringent standards, while leading cross-functional teams with clear, practical communication.

In regulatory roles, I’ve supported large compliance and case-management workloads—maintaining on-time submission compliance with federal deadlines and improving quality control processes to reduce rejection rates. I translate complex requirements into actionable guidance for clients, coordinating with federal stakeholders to streamline workflows and resolve issues efficiently.

My background also blends readiness and discipline: I’ve performed pre-/post-flight aircraft maintenance to FAA and MIL-STD standards, and I’m a FEMA-certified emergency management practitioner with active certifications. I bring that same calm, systems-first approach to crisis intervention, staff training, and process improvement—so teams can execute reliably and achieve measurable outcomes.
