What I'm looking for

I am a seasoned Senior Consultant and Project Manager with extensive experience in managing cross-functional federal civilian agency projects. Currently, I lead initiatives at Corner Alliance, Inc., where I oversee projects valued at over $1.5 billion, ensuring compliance and strategic alignment with government clients. My role involves orchestrating business development proposals and supervising a team to foster professional growth and performance improvement.

Previously, I have successfully managed a $100 million government program, facilitating workshops that engage over 300 stakeholders to enhance industry collaboration. My background in supply chain management and communication allows me to navigate complex project landscapes effectively, utilizing methodologies like APIC and SWOT analyses to mitigate risks and drive project success. I am passionate about building reliable partnerships and implementing best practices that contribute to organizational growth.
