What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned professional with over 15 years of experience in operations, contract administration, and accounting. My extensive background includes managing complex contracts and procurement processes, ensuring compliance with federal regulations, and optimizing operational efficiency.

Throughout my career, I have successfully navigated various roles, including Contracts Administrator at MAG Aerospace and the United States Department of Defense. My expertise in processing Requests for Quotes (RFQs), managing subcontractor relationships, and overseeing billing and accounts receivable has consistently contributed to the success of the organizations I have worked with. I pride myself on my ability to streamline processes and enhance communication across teams, ensuring that projects are completed on time and within budget.
I am now seeking new opportunities where I can leverage my skills in contract management and operations to drive success for a forward-thinking organization. I am open to relocation and eager to contribute to a team that values collaboration and innovation.
