What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can apply contract management and FAR-compliant procurement analysis, improve operational workflows, and support teams with data-driven documentation and automation—ideally within a mission-driven federal or regulated environment.

I’m a contract specialist and operations-focused professional with experience supporting federal procurement work at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Coast Guard. As a Contract Specialist Trainee, I developed market research grounded in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) requirements, analyzed contract data, and prepared amendments and memo-to-files to support compliance and value.

In addition to federal work, I’ve strengthened my execution skills through roles in administrative support, legal operations, and team-based environments. I’ve closed out over 200 contracts worth over $135,000,000, reduced contract backlog in FPDS, and now support CBP’s HR retirement & benefits team by managing inquiries, documenting voicemails, processing physical mail, and routing cases—while also bringing process and automation mindset to daily workflows.
