BS 1993, Aerospace Engineering, University of Colorado Boulder
Senior Program Manager | Connected Logistics
Current city: Washington, D.C.
My career path: After graduating from CU on an ROTC scholarship with an Aerospace Engineering degree, I started a 25-year Army career that allowed me to lead Soldiers in Europe, Haiti, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, and Iraq. I worked as a missile maintenance officer, helped develop the Army’s logistics enterprise information technology system, served as a management consultant, and culminated my career as the Director of Customer Operations for the Department of Defense’s (DoD) $35 billion-dollar annual business unit, the Defense Logistics Agency. After retiring from the Army, I served as a Vice President for Business Strategy in the Defense and Aerospace Industry and currently run the DoD’s Radio Frequency In-Transit Visibility program. I also hold graduate degrees from the Army Command and General Staff College and the National Defense University.
My interest in becoming a Regional Network Ambassador: During my first career in the Army and while starting my second, I realized the value of a CU College of Engineering & Applied Science education and more importantly, the talent within the network of students and graduates. I want to help nurture and grow that network and promote the University of Colorado within our National Capital and along the East Coast.
