      As a Cybersecurity Incident Response Manager at US Army, I successfully led cross-functional teams in planning, coordinating, and executing over 100 cyber operations to support forward deployed troops and defend critical infrastructure. My role involved managing cybersecurity incident response programs to provide real-time support and protect U.S. critical resources. In my role as a Project Manager at the US Army, I oversaw the management of ammunition for 500+ DoD line items valued at over $30M. I supported 3.5K Paratroopers across 6 organizations, ensuring timely and accurate supply of ammunition to meet operational needs. By implementing streamlined inventory processes and a new tracking system, I improved operational efficiency by 15% and reduced errors by 20%.
