She actively prioritizes socioeconomic programs, ensuring equitable access for small disadvantaged, HUBZone, and service-disabled veteran-owned firms. Her procurement strategy reflects a deliberate effort to strengthen local economic resilience while advancing federal land management goals through inclusive contracting. Her technical focus centers on NAICS 237110 (water and sewer line construction), 238160 (roofing), 238910 (site preparation), and 541620 (environmental consulting). She routinely procures services related to erosion control, stormwater management, trail grading, visitor center maintenance, and ecological assessments, demonstrating specialized expertise in sustainable infrastructure development within federal public lands.
