Profile Description

Government Contracting, Procurement & Operations Specialist
Over $3M in Contracts Won | Over $1M in Funding Secured | Procurement, Grants & Contract Support

I am a government contracting, procurement, and operations professional with over 8 years of experience supporting businesses across government procurement, sourcing, vendor management, business development, real estate, short-term rentals, customer operations, and B2B sales. My work has contributed to over $3 million in contract value won and over $1 million in funding secured, with hands-on experience managing the full procurement lifecycle from opportunity identification to post-award coordination.

I specialize in helping organizations identify viable opportunities, assess solicitation requirements, prepare compliant submissions, coordinate vendor pricing, manage supplier relationships, track purchase orders, support contract administration, and improve internal procurement workflows. My background includes experience with RFQs, RFPs, RFIs, IFBs, BPAs, purchase orders, government certifications, supplier sourcing, proposal coordination, compliance tracking, and operational reporting.

Throughout my career, I have supported companies in building stronger procurement systems, improving bid readiness, organizing SOPs, managing vendor relationships, and creating structured workflows that allow teams to respond faster, stay compliant, and compete more effectively in the government marketplace.

Core Expertise
Government Contracting & Procurement Support

I support businesses throughout the full government procurement process, including opportunity sourcing, solicitation review, bid/no-bid assessment, vendor coordination, pricing support, document preparation, compliance review, submission tracking, and post-award follow-through. I am experienced in handling procurement opportunities across federal, state, local, district, city, county, and agency-level platforms.

Opportunity Identification & Sourcing

I am skilled in identifying relevant opportunities through sourcing platforms, procurement portals, agency websites, vendor databases, and bid notification systems. I help businesses evaluate whether an opportunity is worth pursuing based on scope, eligibility, compliance requirements, pricing feasibility, supplier availability, and operational capacity.

Pre-Bid Assessment & Strategy

I conduct detailed pre-bid reviews to assess solicitation requirements, required documents, product specifications, pricing structure, deadlines, risk factors, competitor positioning, and supplier feasibility. This allows leadership teams to make informed bid/no-bid decisions and avoid wasting time on opportunities that are not strategically aligned.

Proposal & Submission Support

I assist with preparing complete, organized, and responsive vendor submissions. This includes reviewing solicitation instructions, gathering required documents, coordinating supplier quotes, preparing pricing data, tracking amendments, organizing attachments, and ensuring that submissions are aligned with agency requirements.

Post-Bid & Post-Award Coordination

I support post-bid reviews by analyzing bid outcomes, identifying improvement areas, and refining future strategies. After award, I assist with purchase order review, supplier fulfillment, delivery coordination, signed packing slip tracking, agency updates, invoice support, and contract-related follow-ups.

Supplier & Subcontractor Management

I build and maintain strong supplier and subcontractor relationships to support competitive pricing, reliable fulfillment, accurate documentation, and timely delivery. I coordinate pricing requests, stock checks, lead times, product specifications, authorized reseller letters, replacement options, discontinued item notices, and shipping estimates.

Contract Administration

I have experience supporting contract lifecycle activities involving Blanket Purchase Agreements, purchase orders, supplier documentation, delivery tracking, compliance files, invoice coordination, agency communication, and internal reporting. I help ensure that contract requirements are properly tracked and executed from award through completion.

Certification & Compliance Support

I assist with organizing and preparing government certification applications and related documentation, including SBA-related certifications, WOSB, HUBZone, and other supplier diversity or contracting certifications. I also help maintain documentation and renewal schedules to support continued eligibility.

SOP Development & Process Improvement

I create and improve SOPs for procurement workflows, proposal development, contract tracking, vendor communication, compliance documentation, task delegation, and team coordination. My goal is to make procurement operations more organized, repeatable, and scalable.

Business Development & Agency Relationship Support

I help businesses expand their opportunity pipeline by identifying target agencies, tracking procurement trends, organizing outreach, supporting relationship-building efforts, and preparing professional communications with contracting officers, agency representatives, suppliers, and partners.

Professional Background

My professional experience includes government procurement support, business development, operations management, executive assistance, customer service leadership, sales development, and project coordination. I have worked with companies and clients across procurement, B2B sales, real estate, short-term rentals, and customer operations, including experience with organizations such as Ink, 7th Echelon, KAG, Cience, Airbnb, and AT&T.

This diverse background allows me to combine procurement knowledge, operational discipline, customer service, sales strategy, and project management into one practical approach. I understand how to manage deadlines, communicate with stakeholders, organize documentation, resolve supplier issues, and keep projects moving forward.

Why Work With Me

I bring both strategy and hands-on execution. I do not only identify opportunities — I help assess them, organize the requirements, coordinate suppliers, prepare documents, manage timelines, track deliverables, and support the team until the work is complete.

Whether your organization needs help with government contract sourcing, proposal support, vendor coordination, compliance tracking, purchase order management, SOP development, or procurement operations, I can help build a more organized and competitive process.

I am committed to helping businesses win more opportunities, reduce procurement delays, strengthen vendor relationships, and improve operational execution from start to finish.
