About
My story
I joined the U.S. Air Force in 2013 as an avionics technician. I repaired flight control and navigation systems on combat search and rescue aircraft, and I learned to lead a shop of technicians.
In 2019 I was selected for officer training and became an intelligence officer. I managed policy and training for intelligence units across Air Mobility Command. Then I ran a 24/7 watch floor that gave threat warning to airlift crews.
Since 2024 I have worked as an educator and program lead at the U.S. Air Force Academy. I lead a geospatial intelligence certificate program and teach cultural geography. I am also earning a Ph.D. in Geographic Education at Texas State University.
Now I am moving to a civilian role. I am open to director, manager, and senior roles in training and education, geospatial and intelligence programs, operations, customer success, and people-focused leadership.
What I bring to a team
- Clear briefings that help leaders decide.
- Training programs that make the work repeatable.
- Leadership of teams and 24/7 operations.
- Practical tools that save analysts time.
