CAREER SUMMARY
I possess over ** years of Supervisory, Training, Maintenance, Leadership, Ground Support, Facilities Management, Site Surveys, Contract Negotiations, Problem Solving and Custom Solutions skills with minimum supervision and also at the supervisory level. I have been dedicated to DHS-FEMA as an ISB Reservist for over 10 years by functioning in the Response Emergency Management role with consistent and proven task completion outcomes. I have received exemplary performance evaluations on numerous incidents and continue to strive to do my very best at every deployment. I have satisfactorily completed complex logistical operations under tight deadlines with extensive travel that offered little to no notice prior to deployments to many locales both CONUS and OCONUS.
I truly believe in FEMA Core values as they reflect my personal development of “Compassion, Fairness, Integrity and Respect”; which allows me to operate in excellence on daily transactions with customers and other employees. I exemplify a level of trust that Leadership respects which allows me to manage a fleet, credit cards, cash and team members time reporting. I have inspected structures to determine the need for repairs, renovations or build outs for coordination of DRC’s and I believe in the goal of the TEAM as I strive for effective solutions to develop and execute strategic plans for growth of even bigger, better, bolder ideas!
