She manages complex construction acquisitions aligned with the Department of the Navy’s strategic imperatives, ensuring timely delivery of facilities that enable naval and marine operational readiness. Her portfolio primarily encompasses commercial and institutional building construction projects, including barracks, command centers, training facilities, and utility infrastructure systems, requiring rigorous compliance with military construction standards and environmental regulations.
