Our
Story
Get to Know Us
I founded Plugged LLC with a powerful vision: to strengthen our communities by expanding access to reliable electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure while creating new opportunities for economic growth. As electric vehicles become an integral part of our daily lives, it is vital for our local communities to embrace this transition. By empowering businesses, property owners, and municipalities to deploy EV charging solutions, my goal is to make sustainable transportation accessible and to attract new businesses, visitors, and investment to our region. My mission begins in my own community, where I am dedicated to forging partnerships that enhance infrastructure and spur economic development. As Plugged LLC expands, I aspire to extend these efforts to neighboring communities, helping them modernize their infrastructure and secure their long-term success. In addition to EV infrastructure, I bring over 16 years of federal acquisition and procurement experience, having held senior leadership roles across multiple federal agencies. Throughout my career, I have managed multi-billion-dollar acquisition portfolios, developed procurement policies, led strategic initiatives, and guided executive leadership on complex contracting matters. I draw upon this experience to assist small businesses in navigating the public sector marketplace. Whether pursuing local, state, or federal contract opportunities, I provide crucial guidance on procurement strategies, proposal development, compliance, and acquisition planning. My mission is to empower businesses with the knowledge and confidence to compete successfully for government contracts and cultivate sustainable growth. At Plugged LLC, success is defined not just by the projects we complete, but by the communities we uplift, the businesses we nurture, and the enduring partnerships we cultivate. I believe that intentional infrastructure investment and strong public-private collaboration can create opportunities that uplift everyone.
