Military background is as an active duty naval officer focused on operations for 4.5 years and as a reservist focused on maritime logistics and security for 4.5 years. Government background is as a program manager for space systems for almost 3 years. My experience as a government PM has mostly been in international partnerships and intelligence. I also have 2 years in healthcare IT project management.

My undergrad degree is in economics, with some quantitative coursework. I also have a masters in international relations with a 3.6 GPA.

In addition to my education, I have my PMP and a government-specific acquisition intelligence analyst certification.

I am fairly committed to staying in LA. Some alternative options I’m considering are Ross and IE Business School online programs.
