He heads the Building Maintenance, Electrical, Plumbing, and HVAC shops. I work with him on projects, budgeting, contracts, work order data, purchasing, timekeeping, and other tasks for these areas.I have spent a lot of my time working on Acquisition Packages and serve as the Contracting Officer Representative (COR) or alternate COR for contracts ranging from ten thousand to seven million dollars.I initially enjoyed working on projects with the shops, because while tracking those projects I was able to see Engineering in action. Things that I studied in books while taking Engineering classes, came alive before my eyes on a daily basis. Not everyone is fortunate to experience what they have studied and I'm grateful for that.The maintenance mechanics turn worn rooms and empty spaces to something that appears freshly retail. It's a sight to see and it makes us all very proud. We all get to do it for our Veterans. I love being a part of Maintenance and Operations and working with the team I currently work with. Show less
