What is your greatest professional achievement? One of most rewarding experiences in my career was working with State, Tribe and Territory human service representatives, providing technical assistance on a new online Federal report for childcare services. CA liked our work and wanted to contract with us on a similar state initiative. I helped get us on their contracting vehicle, helped write the proposal, and when we received the award, managed the project from beginning to implementation, literally a soup-to-nuts effort!
