"Making my service count."

I believe public service is about a collective 'we' and should center on how to achieve great things for the people we serve.

I currently serve in the U.S. Department of State where I am the Managing Director of Financial Policy, Reporting, and Analysis within the Bureau of the Comptroller and Global Financial Services. I am broadly responsible for leadership and oversight of all State Department financial policy, including systems and transactional financial policy. 

When you are passionate about public service, it shows. More than that, it counts. As part of my commitment to public service, I am focused on helping to build a cadre of future public servants and leaders in government.  I have been given tremendous opportunities in my public service career and have grown professionally as a leader. As a result, I’ve had the privilege of seeing organizations grow and change in positive ways. It has been rewarding to mentor people through their careers and see them develop into superb leaders. I am proud to have helped build resilient organizations and to have an even greater impact as I move forward in my career in public service.
