Hi everyone! 👋 Glad to be here and excited to learn and connect with you all. Looking forward to sharing ideas, learning from the group, and growing together. Thanks for having me!

Hey everyone, For the last 15 years, I’ve had the privilege of standing in the trenches with you. Through the Government Contractors Association, I’ve worked alongside over 16,000 organizations and watched you drive over $2 billion in contract awards. It has been the honor of my career. But as I looked at the next chapter, I realized something important. My mission—to uplift entrepreneurs and government-focused organizations—hasn't changed. But the way I fulfill it needed to evolve. Being on the frontlines every day, I saw a simple truth: Most of you don’t struggle because you lack skill or commitment. You struggle because your tools are disconnected, your time is stretched thin, and opportunities are often gated by who you know. I realized I couldn't solve those systemic problems just by coaching. I needed to build something that scales. That is why I founded Govafy. We are taking 15 years of real-world lessons—wins, losses, patterns, and best practices—and codifying them into software that works alongside you. We are building Govafy to create access to opportunities and empower human potential. My goal is to orchestrate a harmony between human intuition and artificial intelligence—letting the technology handle the patterns so you can handle the possibilities. I’m excited to build this future with you. I'm here for you... let me know how I can add value to your contracting journey. “Technology’s highest purpose is to enable human capacity.” - Abraham Xiong
