I have over 25 years of experience in emergency and technology program management, including appointments at the local, state, and federal government levels. I am a former California Office of Emergency Services (OES) Chief of Operations, Acting Deputy Director and Acting Cabinet Undersecretary where I managed the state’s 24-hour alert, warning, safety, security, logistics, communications, and emergency response functions. In this capacity, I also chaired the State’s Response Information Management System Committee and led a number of statewide planning, training, and resource management initiatives. I am an experienced Emergency Management Accreditation Program (EMAP) assessor, team leader, trainer and former EMAP Technical Committee Chair. I've also chaired the International Association of Emergency Managers (IAEM) Standards and Practices Committee.
