Tameka McDaniel
@tamekamcdaniel
I drive federal aviation outreach, strategic planning, executive communications, and program operations.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently supporting the Federal Aviation Administration through JMA Solutions/Tetra Tech, where I plan and facilitate meetings, develop executive reports and dashboards, and organize outreach with FAA leadership, pilots, airports, and aviation stakeholders.
Previously, I supported the Department of Energy as a Business Analyst and the Department of Veterans Affairs as a Senior Management Analyst, providing research, program and project planning, stakeholder communications, policy analysis, event support, and executive presentations.
My FAA experience spans strategic planning, communications, project controls, executive assistance, program analysis, and outreach across NextGen, unmanned aircraft systems, airports, technical training, and runway safety programs.
I turn complex information into clear briefings, reports, talking points, meeting records, and operational plans. I thrive in fast-paced, deadline-driven environments where teamwork, integrity, customer focus, and attention to detail help deliver results.
