Reflecting on her career at MEB Lesley said the USACE Fort Cavazos Fuels Facility Replacement project was her most rewarding because she was able to hone in her quality control skills on that project. “We all take great pride when turning over every fueling facility we work on to the government for military fuel use,” she said.
Her team praised her organization and ability to structure a successful quality control program. They said, her communication skills are unmatched not only with the MEB team, but also with the clients and our trade partners.
Looking ahead she said, “I’m excited to complete the USACE Great Falls Air National Guard POL Complex fueling project from start to finish as the Quality Control Manager.”
