Run the federal practice.
Deliver, agency by agency.
Run delivery of federal-agency engagements end to end: NIST-aligned operations, fiscal-year-aligned procurement rhythms, and a multi-agency portfolio — with P&L responsibility for the practice's growth. This is the seniormost operating role in the federal practice: the person agencies call, and the person the company holds accountable.
