As a seasoned aerospace executive and test pilot with over two decades of experience, I am dedicated to accelerating the integration of advanced technology into DoD Major Weapon Systems. Currently serving as the Sr. Director of Combatant Command and Emergent Mission Strategy at General Atomics - Aeronautical Systems, I lead the development of strategic roadmaps, sensor suites, and mission expansion across all domains.My expertise spans various roles, including Chief Architect, Combat Leader, and Senior Engineer. I have a proven track record in defining Concepts of Operation for Collaborative Combat Aircraft and Remotely Piloted Aircraft, contributing significantly to Airborne Early Warning, Signals Intelligence, and Electronic Warfare missions. With a strong background in leading multi-million dollar projects, strategic mergers and acquisitions, and congressional engagements/strategy I am well-connected within DoD, OGA, Congressional, and industry communities, driving technology pivots for PACOM, EUCOM, and NORTHCOM mission spaces. My goal is to continue serving the nation by leveraging my extensive experience and innovative mindset to enhance our defense capabilities.
