I have led major deployments moving personnel and vehicles via rail, air, and sea and executed complex equipment transfers and requisitions.
My formal education includes an M.S. in Geological Engineering and a B.S. in Psychology with a business minor, supplemented by specialized military courses (Captain's Career Course, SERE-C) and certifications including PMP and Military Geological Engineering. I focus on personnel development and mentoring; several team members advanced to graduate degrees or industry leadership under my supervision.
I bring disciplined project management, logistics certification, and a proven record of cost savings and operational excellence. I seek roles where I can apply leadership, technical problem solving, and logistics/program management to drive measurable outcomes.
