Firm Profiles

As a founding partner, I am privileged to run the day-to-day operations of this Women's Business Enterprise. I've been in public procurement most of my working life, and this background has served me well in working with public entities throughout the state of Arizona and even beyond state borders. This business is all about relationships, honoring what you do, and doing it right the first time. I'm blessed to be called "Nana," and I have lots of pictures to show if you ask!

I started working with PGPC in 2006, specializing in general fixed asset and records retention management. Prior to joining the wonderful professionals at PGPC, I worked for Maricopa County Regional Schools and Washington Elementary School District for a combined 12 Years. My beautiful wife, Jody, and I have been married for over 23 years, and we have been blessed with a wonderful family of five children. 

I've been working as a financial consultant with PGPC several years. My experience has equipped me with the know-how to assist school district superintendents and business officials with accounting and budgeting concerns. My professional background includes working in the capacity of school district finance director in JO Combs, Tempe Union, and Chandler Unified School District. I do love to spend time in the White Mountains in my spare time. You can also fine me spending time with family and friends. 

I am so very excited to join the Professional Group after working nearly 15 years in the professional public and private sector of procurement. I started out as the procurement manager for Marana USD in 2006 and then moved on to the director of outreach & education for Mohave Educational in 2008. In addition, I have worked in purchasing roles for ADOT, ADES, private sector mining equipment, and then, most recently, again for Marana USD as the director of procurement. I am looking forward to continue to work with Arizona schools and vendors.

As one of the founding members of the Firm, it is my goal to provide assistance, education, and training to public entities throughout the state of Arizona. My background in public purchasing allows me to help public entities remain in compliance with Arizona state statutes, Uniform System of Financial Records (USFR), and Arizona state procurement rules. It is very gratifying to provide this service to others in a profession that I hold in high regard. My husband and I have two children and two grandchildren. We enjoy spending as much time as we can during the summer at our cabin in the mountains.
