About Charlotte Purkey

I enjoy working at the intersection of government, defense, and maritime industry, supporting programs that touch supply chain, manufacturing, and national security. My background includes defense program management, procurement, and supply chain analysis, and I enjoy digging into complex requirements and turning them into clear, actionable deliverables.I hold a Master’s in Maritime Trade and Supply Chain Management and a BA in International Conflict and Security with a Business minor. My academic and professional experience has focused on defense innovation, supply chain optimization, and how optimized logistics and operations support national security outcomes.I’m especially interested in the maritime sector, global trade, and the blue economy, and I’m always excited to be part of work that strengthens the maritime industrial base and defense ecosystem.
