APMP-certified and ShipleyWins trained proposal expert with 12+ years in U.S. federal and SLED contracting and overall 15+ years in proposal development, government business development, and project management. I write and manage winning RFP, RFQ, RFI, IFB and Sources Sought responses, plus SAM.gov registration, GSA MAS contract management, capability statements, tender and bid management.
Across 15+ years in government contracting I have worked on 500+ federal and SLED proposals and contributed to 100+ multi-million-dollar contract wins, supporting 50+ small, mid-size and large government contractors - most of that as a full-time BD/capture lead before moving to independent consulting. Compliance is where most bids die: in 500+ submissions, virtually none have been rejected for a compliance error.
I have run every stage of the lifecycle myself, not just the writing: strategic planning, opportunity sourcing, capture, proposal development, submission, and post-award project delivery. Roles held include capture manager, bid manager, proposal manager, government project manager and business analyst. All work follows CMMI Level 5 and APMP/Shipley capture and proposal methods.

HOW I WORK
I give straight advice, including a no-bid recommendation when an opportunity isn't worth your money. Win rates in GovCon depend on more than the proposal -- past performance, pricing, capability and set-aside position all decide outcomes before the writing starts. What I guarantee is a compliant, competitive, on-time submission and an honest read on whether you can win. I work best with clients building a federal or SLED pipeline, not chasing a single solicitation.
I also offer paid consultations for businesses evaluating the U.S. government market before committing to it. Message me your solicitation number or target agency and I'll tell you honestly whether it's a fit.
Looking forward to connecting and discussing further.

I'm a Senior LIHTC Compliance Specialist with 7+ years of experience and a track record of managing compliance across 20+ properties and nearly 5,000 housing units. I've reviewed 300–350 certification files monthly at a 99% accuracy rate — so when I take on your portfolio, you're getting someone who's done this at scale, not someone learning on your files.

Move-In, Annual Recertification, Interim, and Self-Recertification file reviews.
Complex income and asset calculations including 401(k), retirement and investment accounts.
Student eligibility determinations and household composition analysis.
HUD, USDA RD, HOME and Bond compliance — not just LIHTC.
QC oversight and findings documentation.
Who I work with:
Property management companies, affordable housing nonprofits and real estate investors/syndicators who need a reliable, high-volume compliance reviewer they don't have to babysit.
What you get:
Accurate, deadline-driven file reviews using Yardi Voyager, RightSource, and advanced Excel — delivered remotely, with full audit trail documentation on every engagement.
If you need ongoing compliance support from someone who has managed this at enterprise scale, let's talk.

I support federal contractors and set-aside firms (8A,SDVOSB, WOSB, HUBZone) pursuing opportunities across U.S. government procurement platforms, including SAM.gov, State & Local Bidding Platforms for registration, certifications, and full proposal lifecycle support.
💼 Federal Capture & Proposal Strategist | Helping Government Contractors Pursue, Compete, and Win
Winning government contracts requires more than a well-written proposal. Successful pursuits begin long before the solicitation is submitted—with the right opportunity selection, capture strategy, competitive pricing, compliance planning, and disciplined proposal execution.
I partner with government contractors, small businesses, and growth-focused firms as a strategic advisor throughout the federal acquisition lifecycle. Whether you're pursuing your first federal contract or managing a portfolio of multimillion-dollar opportunities, I provide the leadership and structure needed to move pursuits from qualification to compliant submission.
Over the years, I have supported federal opportunities across the Department of Defense (DoD), Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), GSA, U.S. Army, U.S. Air Force, National Cemetery Administration (NCA), and other federal agencies, helping clients manage complex solicitations with confidence.
