Twenty-four years Industrial experience in Software Technologies with General Dynamics, now called Lockheed Martin Corp. Currently research scientist for Lockheed Martin Aero. Principal focus of activities has been in developing and leading research projects, developing algorithms and implementation techniques. LM has licensed a data mining / model building technique to Third Millennium Productions, which has commercialized the tool as DatascapeTM. A recipient of several top honors for technical excellence, including the 2005 Women in Aerospace Outstanding Achievement award, the selection in 2002 as Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Technical Fellow for mathematical algorithms, the Lockheed Martin (Corporate) Nova Award for Technical Excellence, 1997, Lockheed Martin Tactical Aircraft Systems Stellar Performance Award for 1997. One patent is pending, a second patent was submitted 2004 to the US Patent Office. A suite of her technologies is used in Lockheed Martin products.

Eight years teaching of both Mathematics and Computer Science at Texas Christian University and Weatherford College.
