A Unique Candidate

During my career on Capitol Hill, I learned how to work across the aisle and to understand that each topic and issue had many points of view.  I relished the chance to learn about issues from new perspectives, and was measured, thoughtful, and unbiased in my approach.  I was willing to ask hard questions and willing to challenge my own way of thinking, all to ensure that the most effective and considered decisions were made.  Gathering information and data is the best way to reach an informed decision.

Since that time, I have managed complex multi-million-dollar budgets and have worked on strategic planning initiatives.  I have been asked to perform extensive research on a wide range of topics, quickly becoming fluent in topics that were not in my initial areas of expertise.  I am naturally curious and have taken opportunities to continue learning by accepting an appointment to and graduating from the Air Force Air Command and Staff College, as well as completing Project Management Professional training through Boston University.
