I began my professional life in the United States Marine Corps as a Spanish linguist/analyst/reporter. I completed my enlistment in five years and then began working as a Federal contractor in the Washington DC area for several different agencies. I earned two degrees in business, and I have been fortunate to gain many varied experiences in the last 18 years. I am a team player with a wide skill set to include communication, editing, client engagement, and training. I am customer-focused, flexible, and outgoing.
