About
Twenty-plus years of military service, most of it in communications and public affairs, plus civilian stretches in technical program management and enterprise software. Most recently led statewide marketing and communications for the Arkansas Air National Guard, owning the budget, the annual plan, and the campaigns that came out of it. Advised executives up to a two-star general, led production teams, and supervised junior staff throughout. Before the Guard, managed technical programs at Kinesso, built enterprise data solutions at Acxiom, and spent three years as an intelligence analyst in Afghanistan. Comfortable owning a program solo or leading the team that runs it.
