I am responsible for sustaining and enhancing a key system that processes and disseminates critical sensor data for the Space Domain Awareness mission across multiple classification domains. This includes managing the cost, schedule, and performance of the industry and research institute vendors that sustain the system. I also work closely with the operator government customer and other Intelligence Community customers, on deriving requirements and delivering them through this system as warfighter capabilities.

I led a team of inspectors from each unit at Los Angeles Air Force Base in planning and executing full scale exercises to evaluate the base’s ability to respond to natural disasters, terrorist and active shooter attacks, and readiness to deploy. Simultaneously, I was responsible for inspecting each unit at the USSF's Space System Command (SSC) in their effectiveness in completing their missions, taking care of their members, and carrying out the programs assigned to them.

I was the payload IPT lead for the USSF Space Systems Command Tactical SATCOM Division’s Wideband Global SATCOM (WGS) 11+ satellite. WGS-11+ has brought enhanced satellite communication and antijamming capabilities to the US warfighter and allied partner nations.
