Duke (Duke)

Formerly a Sr. Proposal & Capture Manager and Technical Writer with more than 16 years of experience driving high-stakes federal and commercial pursuits. My career is defined by a unique ability to bridge the gap between complex technical solutions and winning through business strategy. Most recently, I have specialized in the procurement and SaaS integration of AI-driven systems like CLE△TUS and Responsive (formerly RFPIO). Unlike a traditional proposal manager, I serve as an internal evangelist who can manage DevOps retooling to ensure AI model alignment with specific proposal requirements rather than generic technical outputs not aligned with RFP Section L & M Instructions. Operating through my Florida-based freelance business, Duke Documents (EIN: 41-424****), I implement rigorous audit trails, content governance, and SME feedback loops that have historically increased RFP volume by 40% and cut review cycles by 50% (i.e., accelerating Pink and Red Team turnaround). Currently seeking a remote, part-time or flexible freelance role where I can apply my "human-in-the-loop" expertise to evaluate, annotate, and improve otherwise AI-generated content. I am based in Orlando, Florida, and am ready to start immediately.
