Skilled in COMMUNICATIONS, DISCOVERY and CREATIVITY
'Communication' is my strong suit. Built consensus within and across Air Force and other military
Service programs, budgets and operations. Led successful negotiations with International partners and
cross-cultural, non-governmental Agencies. Success at all levels of performers, and echelons of
command/management. Created successful, extra-doctrinal approaches to evolving missions.
'Discovery' comes from years of scientific research as well as military operations. Discovered
solutions and alternatives where none previously existed. Skilled at generating suitable 'options' to one
of-a-kind issues. See ways forward often 'invisible' to others. Clearly identify differences and
similarities within myriad of conflicting factors.
'Creativity' blends into all I do. Imagination blended with life experience is key to problem solving. Artistic, right-brained viewpoint adds dimension and energy to solid solutions. Emotional intelligence
and mindfulness contributes to analytic approaches to leadership, professionalism, results and
solutions. EXPERIENCE
