She manages the full lifecycle of construction and facility support contracts, with a focus on interior renovations, building systems upgrades, and mission-critical infrastructure services.

Hillsley specializes in complex, performance-based acquisitions under FAR Part 36, ensuring compliance with federal construction standards and sustainable design requirements. She maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors such as McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, engaging with firms that deliver integrated construction and facility services.

Hillsley’s contracting patterns reflect a balanced commitment to small business participation, with approximately one-third of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5.
