Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561621 for security systems services and 423830 for industrial machinery and equipment wholesaling, with additional emphasis on niche areas such as fiber optic cable manufacturing and industrial gas supply. This technical specialization underscores her expertise in procuring hardened, mission-essential systems that support secure communications, surveillance infrastructure, and base operational resilience across Air Force installations.
