About Me

A career built around leadership, operations, inspections, training, logistics, and making complex work easier to execute.

I am a U.S. Army Master Sergeant currently serving as the Knowledge Management Officer for 4th Brigade (MI), 102nd Training Division (MS), supporting the United States Army Reserve Military Intelligence Center. I enlisted in the United States Army in 2000 and have served across Active Army and Army Reserve assignments in leadership, deployment operations, Inspector General operations, knowledge management, training management, logistics, maritime operations, IT-minded problem solving, and staff process improvement.

My background spans combat convoy leadership, Army watercraft and transportation operations, operations and training management, Inspector General assistance and inspections, knowledge management, accreditation readiness, reporting recovery, IT support, programming projects, and practical automation. As I transition toward retirement, I am building a consulting practice focused on process automation, workflow cleanup, documentation systems, dashboards, compliance tools, and training systems.

My value: I find the real bottleneck, simplify the process, document the standard, train the users, and build tools that help people do the right thing consistently.
