(ASAC) of the OEE Washington Field Office. As a longtime ASAC, I
oversaw the day-to-day operation of a field office with an investigative
jurisdiction covering nine states. I led the arrest of criminal suspects and
oversaw search warrants at multiple sites simultaneously. To ensure that the
OEE Washington Field Office was kept abreast of trends, I attended high-level
enforcement and intelligence briefings in Northern Virginia, Northern and
Central Maryland, Ohio, and Washington, D.C.
My assignment before ASAC was Unit Chief, International Programs, Office
of Enforcement Analysis (OEA), BIS. As the International Programs Unit
Chief, I was responsible for ‘standing up’ the office and managing the eight
Special Agents stationed at our U.S. embassies abroad; and serving as an
Export Control Officer (ECO). As ECO, I was charged with representing us at
numerous diplomatic events. I was also responsible for conducting complex
end-use checks at companies in countries in my area of responsibility. Before
being tasked to manage OEA International Programs, I established the OEE
Investigative Programs Unit, serving several years as its Unit Chief, with the
mission to manage executive-level dual-use licensing cases; undercover matters;
certifying informants; interagency relations; industry and government agency
liaison; and the OEE Voluntary Self-Disclosure Section.
I served as a special agent and then senior special agent on intelligence
matters and also investigated complex nuclear, biological, and chemical cases
in the Washington Field Office and Intelligence Division, Headquarters,
Washington, D.C. and Herndon, Va.

many computer workstations to a Federal government research and
development agency. The automated workstations cost 10 to 20 times as
much as standard workstations. Top management requested me as a
Management Analyst to conduct an efficiency / effectiveness study of the
issue.
My detailed study, based on work sampling and cost and cost-benefit
analysis, showed the computerized workstations cost 10 to 20 times more
than a standard workstation and only increased productivity 10 to 15 percent.
Further, the automated workstations were only being used an hour or two a
day and were not cost-effective.My study team report made a number of
recommendations to make the use of the computer workstations more cost-
