I am a 49 year old women with 3 children. My husband is a Captain in the US Navy. I transitioned from the Navy in 2018 to raise my children.  Now they are all in school and I am looking for new opportunities to fulfill my life and provide challenge while maintaining balance to run my kids around to their many activities.

I have 6 years of Financial Management experience with a proven track of success in financial analysis, budgeting and forecasting. I have a strong aptitude for data-driven decision making and a passion for streamlining processes to maximize efficiency. My expertise in financial management has enabled me to successfully identify and capitalize on cost saving opportunities and generate significant program growth. My most recent opportunity involved working a team to upgrade the Navy's financial IT systems. In this position, I worked as the Scrum Master, using Jira to coordinate the team. I served 20 years in the Navy as a Naval Aviator

I attended the United States Naval Academy

I received my master's from the Naval Postgraduate School in Business Administration with distinction.
