    • DOI Office of Inspector General

      Aug 2009 - Jul 2023

      As a Communications Specialist for the DOI OIG, I was responsible for managing original editorial content for the DOI OIG intranet, as well as managing the intranet platform. I also assisted with writing myriad public-facing communications and served as the backup spokesperson for the organization. I developed and enforced standards for OIG’s public affairs programs while recommending communications strategies to senior leadership. My achievements facilitated OIG leadership’s success in fulfilling the strategic goal to “practice planned, clear, and effective communication.” Show less As the Web Manager for the DOI OIG, I was responsible for writing, editing, and posting website content to promote the mission of the OIG to the general public, Congressional staff and members, and other stakeholders. I also used my strong project management and interpersonal skills while supervising the writing, production, communications planning, and content posting for the OIG intranet. The intranet improved internal communication and fostered an OIG community by highlighting strengths and achievements of the workforce. Show less I edited audit, evaluation, inspection, investigative, and information technology reports for consumption by DOI officials, Congress, the public, and other stakeholders. This required extreme attention to detail, strong written and oral communications, and an ability to collaborate with report teams and authors. I wrote, edited, produced, and distributed high-level reports attributed to top officials that conveyed complex, sensitive information accompanied by key statistical and visual data. My results-oriented approach to editing and communication improved clarity and ensured high-quality, consistent communication of OIG reports. Show less
