Who am I?
“The first qualification for success in my view is a strong work ethic”
My name is Makayla Lapora, and this is my portfolio. I currently work as a Contracting Coordinator for TYR Tactical, where I am a Technical Writer and Content Strategist. I currently have over a year of experience in my role as a Contracting Coordinator and have grown into my role successfully, submitting proposals and winning contracts.
My current role includes the submission of tenders for tactical and law enforcement gear. I work on a wide variety of projects, including municipal and federal solicitations. Day to day, I am often writing, researching, creating action items, and submitting on a variety of opportunities, such as Requests for Information (RFIs), Request for Proposals (RFPs), and Request for Quotes (RFQs).
I am looking for a role that aligns with my educational degrees and professional workplace experience. I hold a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) In Technical Writing, which I obtained in 2024, I also hold a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) In English, which I obtained in 2023 from Arizona State University.
