Her approach reflects a deliberate effort to cultivate a diverse supplier base capable of meeting the unique demands of national park environments. Her industry focus centers on NAICS categories related to water and wastewater infrastructure, building construction, and mechanical systems installation. She procures engineered solutions for aging utility networks, including pump stations, septic systems, stormwater controls, and energy recovery technologies. Her technical expertise lies in integrating modern infrastructure with historic preservation requirements, ensuring compliance with NPS-28 and NEPA guidelines while advancing operational efficiency.
