Red Bull Space Edition
This Red Bull concept was discussed with Red Bull and if I can get partnered with a company that shares my same vision about the commercialization of space and get enough funding and progress toward a vehicle that could allow for repeated travel into space allowing for space tourism, they may be willing to put my idea on the market. This will take a bit of doing, but not impossible.
Procurement
I am currently a Procurement Agent for Boeing, working with suppliers around the globe from various states in the U.S. to France, Germany, England, and India. I've mainly focused my time on the operations side, where I ensure the on time delivery of quality parts, though I have worked with our contracting teams in developing negotiation strategies as well.
WIPMatrix
WIPMatrix: (Will update to include Video animation of site features)
My App, WIPMatrix, is still a work in progress but is taking aim to revolutionize the way teams manage projects. Blending social media with project management concepts and incorporating aspects of agile, it will allow for a user friendly experience that will become second nature to the user and become the new way projects are managed.
Project Manager
Spent 8 years working for Boeing as a Project Manager in charge of various changes that needed to be made to the aircraft. I was able to work in all aspects of the aircraft from propulsion, systems, structures, electrical, and interiors. Managed over 500 projects from project start to end. Worked with Lean teams as well to streamline processes and improve business systems.
Fundraising Projects
Am working to gain sponsorships for a team to compete in the Clipper Around the World Race in an effort to raise funds for the American Foundation of Suicide Prevention. Mental health disorders are real and affect the lives of many people around the world. Whether it is depression, seasonal affective disorder (SAD), post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD); these need to be addressed and we need to find a way to help so that we can reduce the number of suicides that are taking place. It extends even further than mental health disorders and goes into aspects of bullying, cyber bullying, and other behaviors that bring people down and make people feel less than they really are. By raising awareness and taking an active part to work toward reducing the number of suicides that take place, not only nation-wide, but world-wide as well, I believe the attention that can be garnered through this race will be a great tool to bring this goal to light.
