About the Instructor
My name is David Reeves, I am
a Contract Specialist with the Department of the Navy. I currently work in the
ROICC Office at the Marine Corps Logistics Base in Barstow CA. My previous
position was the Director of Contracting and Purchasing at
the Marine Base, Barstow CA
. I retired from the Air Force in 1995, came to work at Marine Corps Logistics Base Barstow in May 2001 as a Navy Acquisition Intern. This was a 3-year program designed to lead the intern through the requirements needed in the acquisition field. During the 3 years, I attended all the required DAWIA (Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act) courses and was awarded my Level I and Level II Certification in Contracting.
During my second year into the program, my predecessor decided to retire early and I was placed in his position early as the (CCO) Chief of Contracting Office, which I have filled till 2009 when I moved to my current position.
On April 17, 2004 I completed the Intern program and was picked up full time as a Barstow employee, Supervisory Contract Specialist GS-12. I current have my Level III Certification in Contracting.
So you can see that learning never stops. I would not be in the position I am today if not for the educational base I established when I first started my college education. I have worked for and achieved a Masters Degree in Business Administration (MBA), a Bachelor of Science in Occupational Education, an Associates is Applied Sciences and an Associates in General Studies. I am married, have two grown children, two granddaughters and live in Apple Valley California
