I came to DAS as the Statewide Accounts Receivable Management (SWARM) Coordinator. I served in that capacity for over 5 years before being assigned to manage the Economic Recovery Executive Team in the Governor’s office which was responsible for the implementation
and reporting of Recovery Act grants received by Oregon agencies. In August of 2013 I transferred to the DAS Enterprise Technology Services (ETS) to perform disaster recovery planning for critical state information technology infrastructure.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
