As an independent Proposal Manager, I support small and mid-sized government contractors with federal opportunity qualification, bid strategy, and end-to-end RFP and RFQ responses. I use Shipley processes to guide proposals from capture through compliant submission.
I draft executive summaries, win themes, and technical narratives, and coordinate writers, subject-matter experts, and stakeholders through reviews. I also use AI tools for outlines, first drafts, and compliance checks, refining each output with SMEs.
At Macfadden & Associates, Inc. (now PAE / Amentum), I provided project management oversight for three USAID projects totaling $12M and maintained ISO 9001 certification. I also held Facility Security Officer responsibility for cleared employees and led Salesforce and SharePoint implementations.
At D. Stefano Building & Restoration, Inc., I built an online job reporting tool that raised field supervisor productivity by 30%. At Impact Africa, I led the move to Salesforce donor management, bringing $1M+ in donations onto a system with real fund allocation and donor tracking.
