I led 25 senior leaders and directed all aspects of operations, HR and programs for a maintenance organization with 575 personnel that maintained the flight-readiness of 20 C-130J aircraft. With a $21M operational budget, I forecasted, allocated and monitored funds to optimize resource efficiency while overseeing a $20.7M flying hour program. I am available for a new opportunity beginning August of 2023.➥ As a strategic planner, I established long-term strategy, supply chain forecasts and staffing allocation plans that effectively and efficiently enabled more than 350K annual maintenance hours. When special deployments and projects were required, I planned and managed resources including equipment and staffing. ➥ After I took over an underperforming team with up to 38% staffing shortages, I led the team to their highest level of production in 20 years. Not only did aircraft availability increase 35%+, but we also outperformed our flying hour program by 15%.➥ I optimized program performance through proactive supply chain forecasting, efficient staffing and maintenance scheduling, improving employee relations and team building and focusing on process improvements. ➥ Serving as a facility manager, I oversaw the maintenance, security and safety of 14 facilities that included aircraft hangers, office space and HazMat storage as well as inspection and fabrication shops.

I led a 40-person team at HQ AF Reserve Command that wrote and codified maintenance policies and technical instructions. The directives impacted 14K maintenance technicians across 50+ specialties that maintained operability of 365 fighter, attack, air refueling, airlift and ISR aircraft.➥ I led aircraft modernization efforts by evaluating technical directives and maintenance policies and drafting new maintenance procedures. ➥ Collaborating with a 90-person project team, I revised logistics sustainment plan for the USAF fleet, managing aircraft posturing and 3-day combat readiness metrics that enabled informed decision making. This project is currently being rolled out USAF-wide.➥ I created data-driven policy by utilizing KPIs and other data analysis tools. These policies enabled executive leaders to make decisions about fleet right-sizing.➥ I led and mentored career field managers that oversaw 14K+ technicians located at 43 CONUS locations. I directed training and mentorship programs and career path planning and coordinated with headquarters on staffing allocation, succession planning and payroll forecasting.➥ After implementing technician cross-training and proactive recruiting, I improved staffing levels from 62% to 80% in 6 months. ➥ Serving as a project manager for special projects, I oversaw initiatives that enabled cutting edge ideas and the testing of new procedures. Highlights include:> Led the first ever Agile Combat Employment initiative that enabled a cross-trained agile team to provide combat field support for MQ-9 assets. The procedures behind the project were recognized by the Air Force Chief of Staff.> Created framework for one of the largest staffing restructures in history. This 3-year plan re-classified 1,743 personnel and added 635 FT employees the 1st year. > Planned and led Crashed Damaged Disabled Recovery project that transported the remains of a MQ-9 asset. By responding in < 22 hours, I preserved 1,500 pieces of evidence.

Leading teams of up to 450 technicians that inspected, maintained and repaired aircraft assets, I oversaw all aspects of operations including HR and staffing allocation, program management, quality assurance, strategic planning, resource allocation and forecasting and special projects. I guided the team’s culture and motivated personnel to exceed expectations.➥ As a visible leader, I provided coaching and mentorship while clearly conveying standards and expectations. This leadership style was key to never failing an operational readiness inspection. ➥ In order to support operational objectives, I developed long-term strategy, defined short-term priorities, conducted risk analysis, identified deficiencies and introduced corrective measures.➥ I was selected to lead special projects or innovations. Twice, I set up brand new F-22 programs including facilities, equipment, staffing and budgeting. In preparation for the Iraqi invasion and in support of combat operations, I was selected to set up a maintenance and refueling facility.
