What I'm looking for

I seek leadership or program management roles applying military logistics, project management, and engineering expertise in mission-driven teams that value operational excellence and personnel development.

I am an accomplished U.S. Army Engineer Officer and PMP-certified program manager with advanced training in geological engineering and geospatial intelligence. I combine military leadership, logistics expertise, and technical engineering knowledge to deliver missions on time and under budget.

In command and operations roles I have managed organizations from platoon to company and directed programs overseeing hundreds of soldiers and tens of millions in equipment, consistently earning top performance ratings. 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.
