Have you ever felt like you’re playing checkers, while the person you’re talking to is playing chess? If not, ask Courtney De Pol about her career journey, and she’ll stitch together seemingly disparate experiences from Annapolis, Maryland; Kanagawa, Japan; Corpus Christi, Texas; and currently Manatee County into an incredible narrative that will, in the end, feel like it couldn’t have happened any other way.

This is De Pol’s superpower: taking on a complex situation, focusing intently on a solution and putting the pieces together in a way that gets her to exactly where she needs to be.

It’s how she turned an engineering degree from Vanderbilt University into a project management job at a construction company in Washington, D.C., and then turned that into a career as a civilian leader on U.S. military bases worldwide, including Naval Air Facility Atsugi in Japan.
