💼 Federal Capture & Proposal Strategist | Helping Government Contractors Pursue, Compete, and Win

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.
