An astute strategist, I have played a leading role on proposal teams for organizations in nearly every state and internationally, both as an employee of the organization and as a consultant. More than $8B in funding has been awarded on behalf of my clients and employers through B2B proposals and federal and international government agencies’ RFXs, PQQs, ITTs, IDIQs, and FOAs. I have successfully managed the proposal efforts of highly technical engineering teams, as well as the editing, graphics, and publishing teams on large complex projects.

Additionally, I have successfully managed teams comprised of foreign and domestic physicians, scientists, engineers, and other subject matter experts.
