I perform the duties of a Staff Assistant/Mission Support Specialist for the FIG-LA. This includes telecommunications, budget, finance, procurement, human resources, training, logistics, property, travel, mail, and office space and office equipment. I advise and keep management abreast of all administrative matters.

During my tenure with the Field Intelligence Group-Los Angeles (FIG-LA), the organization has undergone many managerial and administrative changes. At times, I have not received formal, on-the-job, or classroom training covering the new procedures. However, I take the initiative to execute my own on the job training, while networking within ICE, and learning to adapt to the new administrative policies. As a result, I have received excellent compliments, on the job, from the Director at ICE Headquarter and local (acting Directors within FIG-LA. On a routine basis, I work with and deal with upper level of management as well as the general public within the Department of Homeland Security such as Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) the National Finance Center (NFC), Dallas Finance Center (DFC), ICE Headquarters and local SAC/Los Angeles.

This report is significant in detecting any shortfall of funds before they actually occur. I informed management on all contracts funds, and advised them when the reprogramming of funds are required to avoid shortfalls in any Blanket Purchase Agreement contracts or Recurring Obligations, Reimbursable Work and Inter Agency Agreements.
