Since 1996, I have worked for an IT services company located in Northern Virginia. During that time, I have gained vital leadership, management, business, and financial skills. Throughout the last five years, I have established and maintained a top secret facility security office. Subsequent to 9/11, we were awarded a subcontracting opportunity to support the Transportation Security Administration on a mission critical program to supply 200+ people to train, certify, and recertify passenger and baggage screeners at US airports in an effort to thwart terrorism.
