Bio
With nearly 25 years of federal service, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise. My background includes leading diverse, multifaceted teams developing and implementing strategic communications through various marketing channels.
My journey in the communications field began as a Marine combat correspondent, where I had the opportunity to serve in multiple deployments. After transitioning from active duty, I used my knowledge and experience to create and implement best practices for traditional broadcast and strategic digital communications within the DoD community abroad and in combat environments.
After a brief stint in Washington, D.C., where I worked as a broadcast producer, I returned to the DoD. I spent the last decade directing an international corporate sponsorship and advertising program and leading host nation and installation public relations, communication strategies, and comprehensive marketing campaigns for the Marine Corps' morale, welfare, and recreation programs in Japan.
Currently, I direct stakeholder engagement strategies for a federal agency overseeing a nationwide real estate portfolio of nearly 370M rentable square feet and approximately $75B in annual contracts. In this role, I lead digital campaigns promoting the agency's mission and activities, providing accurate, timely, and relevant information to customers, stakeholders, and the public.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Media Communications from Full Sail University, have completed the Executive Leadership Program at UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School, am a graduate of DINFOS, and am currently pursuing a masters in public relations at Full Sail University.
As a seasoned professional with a wealth of experience and a passion for the field, I am excited to bring my skills and expertise to a new opportunity and continue to drive impactful and effective communications strategies.
