I’m currently working as a DOD Civilian at Air Force Plant 42, an operating location of the 412 Test Wing at Edwards AFB. I’m an Acquisition Program Manager overseeing IT infrastructure, IT Operations, and Planning. During my earlier ACSC courses, I was an IT Manager with the USAF 412 Communications Squadron in charge of IT project management, engineering and planning, agreements, contract oversight, and budgeting/FM. In my former life, I was an F-16 Crew Chief and served as a contractor supporting flight and maintenance operations for the USAF Test Pilot School’s VISTA program (NF16-D Variable In-Flight Test Aircraft) and then as a software developer. I completed my MBA in 2008 and eventually became a PMP certified IT Project Manager with civil service, then moved into management.
I enjoy photography and give back by providing coaching and professional skills development to people in my organization.
