Experience
Senior Dod Operations Sme and Business Development Advisor
Feb 2025 — Present
Senior DoD Operations and USAF C2 Subject Matter Expert with over two decades of operational experience, now serving as a critical liaison between AOC leadership, software developers, and program stakeholders for Clarity Innovations. I specialize in aligning emerging software capabilities with real-world mission execution at the operational and strategic levels.My current focus is on supporting the evolution of the KRADOS software platform to meet the demands of the Air Tasking Cycle (ATC) and broader AOC mission sets. I bring the user’s voice into software design, testing, and training—ensuring that development priorities reflect actual warfighter needs. I also lead KRADOS training initiatives to ensure adoption, relevance, and mission readiness across AOCs.In addition to operational engagement, I contribute to DoD business development and program growth by identifying capability gaps, translating them into actionable requirements, and advocating for scalable solutions that align with long-term mission needs. I work closely with internal teams and government partners to shape future development efforts and identify opportunities for expanded impact across the Joint C2 ecosystem.Passionate about advancing command and control systems and advocating for the operational user, I support multiple stakeholders including the 45th Test Squadron, 505th Training Squadron, and PACAF AOC leadership. Whether influencing feature roadmaps, developing training programs, or providing strategic feedback from DoD exercises, my goal is to ensure KRADOS helps the AOC community meet current and future challenges.
