Are you interested in selling to the government? I can help you comply with SBA requirements to obtain certification as a women-owned, disadvantaged (8a), veteran-owned or Hub-zone company which would help enable you to bid on “set-aside" government contracts. With over twenty years of diverse small business experience, I can assist with identifying where your product or service may be needed in the global marketplace. I have expertise in Federal Contract Administration and can help guide you through researching Federal, State, County and municipal opportunities, as well as the bid and proposal process and other post-award compliance requirements. Most recently, I was the Director of Operations for a small ($5 million) specialty engineering firm and oversaw the finance, human resources and contract administration (both commercial and government). Prior to this position, I had a ten-year career with the Federal Government including serving as lead Contracting Officer-primarily in foreign countries. Whatever you may need, I am eager to meet with you and listen and share my relevant expertise. Concurrent with my professional career I have always sought volunteer activities-ranging from sports to scouts and first responders. In addition to English, I have some proficiency in Turkish, French and Haitian Kreyol languages. It will be a joy to be able to help and watch your business improve and succeed.
