This is similar to a Chief Innovation Officer or Futurist in some civilian organizations, focusing emerging trends and concepts. Spearheads efforts of a worldwide organization with a $20 billion budget and bridges the national industrial base to deployed units in the field, to lead change and help develop, translate and execute the commander's vision and intent into actions and results. Convert abstract, emerging, and often ill-defined concepts into tangible, concrete ideas the organization can use.

Lead a team that analyzed and reconciled unit equipment requirements based on mission and authorization with Army and commander priorities for all units in the Western portion of the US (including Alaska and Hawaii). This involved managing equipment through deployment readiness cycles and equipment sustainment as part of the Army Force Generation (ARFORGEN) model, as well as developing the tools and processes for the Lead Materiel Integrator (LMI) model to distribute and re-distribute equipment Army-wide, to include integrating equipment fielding with training and all other aspects of generating a ready unit.

Combined/Joint Task Force 101 in Afghanistan. Worked in the CJ5, future plans directorate, a small team of plans officers of diverse specialties that formed the nucleus of the planning effort for long range or complex problems and command initiatives. My primary project leads focused on logistics and infrastructure and included leveraging renewable energy in remote combat outposts to offset fuel delivery requirements and enhance resiliency; leading the whole staff’s planning effort to introduce an additional Brigade Combat Team of 3,500 troops into Eastern Afghanistan; and collaboration with NATO partners and US Central Command in preparing to introduce three Brigade Combat Teams, an Aviation Brigade, and various enabling units into Southern Afghanistan for the “surge.” I also led the staff in identifying and executing transition of National Support Element functions and requisite resources from CJTF-101 to US Forces-Afghanistan (USFOR-A).

Fort Knox, Ky, Us

Responsible for US Army recruiting in 10,000 square miles of the Central Illinois area, headquartered in Peoria, with 110 high schools, 8 four-year colleges, and 7 two-year colleges. Our organization consistently provided quality, educated and intelligent personnel to the US Army when those people were most needed and faced the most adverse market conditions at the peak of the war in Iraq. This position developed market analysis, public relations, and social networking skills, and drew upon candor and moral courage in enforcing ethical and legal standards while fulfilling the mission.

Helped plan the full range of support, including fuel, ammunition, food, medical, maintenance, and services for a task force comprised of over 10,000 pieces of equipment and 36,000 service members plus contractors during the invasion of Iraq. The original plan to enter from the North required intensive planning to overcome lack of supporting infrastructure and the absence of the normal external logistics support present in other locations. Our team also had to quickly and continually improvise and adapt to the sudden mission change to enter from Kuwait.
