Member Bio
After 20 years of experience leading diverse teams to win large, complex business development (BD), capture and proposal efforts for the top federal contractors within the United States defense and civilian arena, I founded The Peerless Group. We are a boutique small woman and minority-owned business serving the government contracting community. We specialize in capturing large, strategic federal contracts primarily in technology, engineering, and research and development (R&D) services and integration, up to the Top Secret (TS) level. Our areas of focus include but are not limited to: enterprise IT, cyber, space, health, and FEDSIM opportunities.I thrive on solving my customers’ toughest challenges by cultivating a culture of collaboration and actively engaged leadership and empowering individual team members with the knowledge, processes, and tools to execute and excel. I built my reputation in the GovCon industry by bidding and winning large, strategic opportunities within the Defense and Federal Civilian agencies with a focus on emerging and next generation technologies and solutions. I've held capture management positions at leading Federal Government Contractors: Leidos, GDIT (legacy CSRA and CSC), SAIC (legacy Engility), where I successfully closed $2B in new and re-compete business. My diverse background includes working for start-ups, mid-sized and large businesses in growth-oriented roles. This background, coupled with my experience studying in Spain and living and working in Japan supporting government and academia, provides me with a broad worldview and appreciation for differing perspectives to meet business objectives. I hold a Federal CIO certification, an MS in Technology Management from George Mason University and BA in Journalism from the University of Maryland College Park. Outside of my career, I have volunteered as the Marketing and Publicity Co-Chair Video Lead for the Association of Proposal Management Professionals (APMP) National Capital Area assisting with their overall marketing and communications strategy. I cherish my time with my family and friends. I am a wife, mother of 2 young kiddos, lover of travel, life-long learner, and fitness enthusiast.

Ideal Customers
1. Large Prime Contractors (LBs) Profile: Established market leaders competing for large, complex federal opportunities. Core Challenge: Maintaining dominance and high win rates on high-stakes pursuits ($100M–$1B+) while internal resources are stretched. Strategic Need: Immediate, expert access to proven Capture Managers to augment internal teams, maturing the value proposition, solution, and customer intimacy of every "must-win" opportunity. The Peerless Value: Deploying elite expertise to execute disciplined capture strategies critical to shaping the solution, building trust, and securing major contracts. 2. Mid-Tier Businesses (The Competitive Gap) Profile: Established, financially stable LBs that have graduated from SB status but are now undersized when competing against larger firms. Their success is often tied to a limited number of agencies or core contracts. Core Challenge: Risk mitigation through diversification. They lack the scalable internal capture bench strength to win new contract vehicles and expand into new agencies. Strategic Need: Sophisticated BD/ Capture managers and strategies to compete and win against LBs, combined with expertise to unseat incumbents and diversify their client base. The Peerless Value: Providing the BD/capture expertise needed to successfully navigate the jump in competitive size and achieve greater business diversification. 3. Mature Small Businesses (The Growth Catalyst) Profile: Proven small businesses that are poised for the transition to large business status. They rely heavily on SB set-asides and have limited experience competing. Core Challenge: They lack the dedicated in-house BD/capture and proposal expertise needed to transition from reliable subcontractor to Prime contractor. They are often unclear on which opportunities to pursue. Strategic Need: Structured BD pipeline and capture discipline to manage a greater volume of pursuits and secure the high-value Prime contracts required for the next stage of growth. Proposal development support to deliver differentiated, compelling, winning bids. The Peerless Value: Delivering the expertise required to identify and qualify opportunities, inform bid/no-bid decisions, and hyper-focus on winning the most strategic Prime opportunities. Markets & Strategic Philosophy Market Focus: Our clients compete in the Defense, Civilian, and National Security (Intelligence) markets.
