What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead intelligence analysis and operations, produce actionable threat assessments, develop analysts through training, and support mission-critical decision making.

I've coordinated intelligence-gathering missions for Northrop Grumman in Afghanistan, managing simultaneous Unmanned Aircraft Systems operations and ensuring collection requirements were met in contested airspace.

I delivered moving target indicator, synthetic aperture radar, and geospatial analysis for US Special Operations Forces, while researching fused reporting to counter insurgency activity and IED production by groups including Al-Qaeda and the Taliban. I also coordinated several thousand tactical decision aids and hundreds of requests for information supporting tactical planning.

At BAE Systems, I held decision authority for actionable threat assessments and timely warning in a 24/7/365 multi-agency environment. I mapped terrorist threat networks, developed high-value targets, produced all-source intelligence, and helped brief senior Intelligence Community and federal decision makers.

I've also led analyst training, built a programme-wide finished-intelligence writing regime that brought more than fifty trainees to proficiency, and directed a property investment company. My background includes service as a US Army Reserve Military Intelligence Officer and instructional experience in Thailand and the United States.
