I am a leader who listens.I believe a successful team is bounded by trust, accountability and a purpose. As a leader in the contracts profession, my team is empowered to make decisions and their independence allows me to focus on strategy and complex problems that arise in a diverse customer portfolio. Data is invaluable to me, I want to understand trends in workload, and I use data to understand size, scope and complexity of the business as well as forecast future needs and actions. I prioritize communication with my team over assumption, I am closely aligned with my operational and functional counterparts and it's very important to me that I build and maintain those relationships. Both in and out of work, I am always learning; progression in life both personally and professionally is crucial in my position and my future career desires.Throughout my career in contracts, I have enjoyed working with a wide variety of federal civilian government agencies, a sampling of my significant contracts include Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Veterans Affairs (VA), Office of Personnel Management (OPM), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Justice (DOJ), US Courts, Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI), Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).When I am not leading a team, interpreting US federal Government regulations or meeting with customers, you’ll find me working on a DIY project around the house and enjoying time with my wife and our four children. Work/life balance is a must have for me, and I am equally respectful of others family needs and wishes. Specialties Include: Federal Government Contracting, Management Consulting, Strategy, Marketing, Financial Analysis, Contract Administration, Subcontract Administration, Proposal Preparation, Contract Negotiation, Operations and Account Management, Oral and Written Communication
