What I'm looking for

I'm preparing to transition from military service in 2028 and am interested in roles where I can lead aviation maintenance, logistics, program management, readiness, and cross-functional operational improvement.

I lead enterprise fuel systems maintenance policy and training for 1,500 personnel across 15 United States Air Force wings, aligning readiness, manpower, force development, and modernization initiatives.

I've directed aircraft maintenance operations, sortie production, workforce scheduling, resource allocation, and inspection readiness. As an Accessories Flight Chief, I led 45 personnel sustaining critical fuel systems and egress subsystems under rigorous safety and quality standards.

I'm a PMP-certified aviation maintenance and program management leader with a Business Management degree and hands-on experience in quality assurance, logistics coordination, and cross-functional operational problem-solving.
