EXPERIENCE DETAILS

Booz Allen Hamilton, Inc., Associate 04/2019– 03/2021 Washington DC

At Booz Allen Hamilton, I learned the mindsets of Federal executives; an intense commitment to the missions of their agency but challenged when required to balance creativity and compliance. I learned to listen carefully, ask open ended, non-judgmental questions and reflect back to my clients both what they had made explicit and what my business intuition and acumen suggested were their unspoken fears and concerns.

At Booz Allen, I discovered the intersection of DevOps, Agile and the Toyota Production System mindsets. I learned the value and necessity for rapid design cycles with client review and course correction. I also came to appreciate the value of extreme transparency and daily scrum for the empowerment of development teams.
