Experienced federal procurement analyst and policy leader driving acquisition efficiency and compliance.
United StatesI am a seasoned federal procurement analyst and policy leader with decades of experience across multiple federal agencies, including Treasury (OCC), DOL, NNSA, NRC, HHS, and USAID. I have developed, implemented, and overseen procurement regulations, policies, and acquisition strategies, and I hold a FAC-C (Professional) certification.
Throughout my career I have led policy teams, managed acquisition divisions, supported solicitation and pre-award reviews, and participated on interagency working groups and review boards. I have held supervisory roles with responsibility for staff recruitment, training, and day-to-day management, and I maintained an unlimited warrant while supporting international missions.
I bring a pragmatic, compliance-focused approach to acquisition management, with documented experience improving procurement processes, drafting acquisition regulations and guidance, and coordinating policy across complex agency environments. I am committed to driving procurement efficiency, risk mitigation, and workforce development.
