MARJA FERMAN

As a Grants Management Specialist with nearly two years of experience, I have honed my skills in the administration, analysis, negotiation, and award of grants, particularly within the research and development sector. My role as a Team Lead at Louisville Metro Government has allowed me to act as a technical expert, ensuring compliance with policies and regulations while mentoring junior specialists to enhance their understanding of grant management.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a proven track record of optimizing grant and procurement processes. My experience includes conducting thorough reviews of procurement request packages, analyzing grant proposals, and maintaining active communication with grantee representatives. I am passionate about leveraging my expertise to contribute effectively to organizations like the US Office of Naval Research, where I can continue to make a significant impact in the field of grant management.
