About

After 20 years in the U.S. Air Force — spanning aerospace maintenance, enlisted recruiting, HR administration, and finishing as Flight Chief of Military Personnel Programs at Patrick Space Force Base. I transitioned into the civilian workforce with a clear focus: applying the same human capital expertise I developed in uniform to help organizations build, retain, and develop their people. I now support STARCOM’s civilian workforce strategy as a Recruiting & Retention Analyst with Galapagos Federal Systems, embedded at Patrick Space Force Base. My work centers on workforce analytics, attrition analysis, and data-driven retention strategies translating complex employee behavior data into actionable insights for Space Force leadership. My background spans military HR, talent acquisition (USAF Silver Badge Recruiter), AI-augmented vendor operations, and organizational leadership. I hold an MS in Organizational Leadership, an active TS/SCI clearance, and a deep familiarity with the STARCOM mission and Space Force personnel ecosystem.
