What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a mission-driven team where I can own manpower/HR coordination, action tracking, executive support, and cross-organization communication—while improving processes, troubleshooting tools, and keeping operations running smoothly under tight timelines.

I’m a Staff Officer who thrives in fast-moving, mission-focused environments—managing manpower/HR support, running action tracking, and ensuring leadership decisions translate into timely execution.

At the National Security Agency, I’ve supported hiring by creating and entering vacancies, processing applicants, capturing interview notes, and submitting offers. I also manage manpower needs through billets and change requests, while creating and processing awards and maintaining award-monetary tracking with high attention to detail.

I bring a strong liaison-and-communication mindset, coordinating across organizations to support joint efforts, troubleshooting virtual and computer systems, and leading meeting cadences with organization leadership. I’ve also provided executive-level documentation, reporting analysis for efficient dissemination, event planning for high-level stakeholders, and executive presentations to external partners.
