Sotera's President & CEO, John Hillen, commented on the addition of Ms. Felix as the company's CFO, "Jennifer is both an impressive financial leader and a star executive in the government contracting sector. Sotera has experienced fast growth in the technology solutions segment of the defense and intelligence community and we continue to seeking new and innovative ways to expand our presence in the national security market. Having a CFO with the right breadth of experience to champion Sotera's growth into the $500M+ range while navigating the complex and dynamic national security market is a must for our organization.  We have found that person in Jennifer and we look forward to continuing our growth trajectory under her guidance."  

Ms. Felix brings to Sotera the knowledge she has gained from 20 years of experience as a financial professional in the government services and technology sectors. Her outstanding career includes serving as Controller of two private equity-backed companies, Deltek, Inc. and Vangent, Inc.  During her tenure with those organizations, Ms. Felix took Deltek through an initial public offering and helped Vangent secure a successful sale to General Dynamics.   

As Vice President and Corporate Controller for Vangent, Ms. Felix was retained in the General Dynamics/Vangent merger for a corporate position where she took on the role of Financial Planning Director in charge of all mergers & acquisition (M&A) for General Dynamic's largest and most acquisitive business segment, IS&T, with over $11 billion in technology and services revenue.  She is well versed in leading financial operations improvements, including financial systems and complex M&A integrations.

While serving as Vice President of Finance at Deltek, she built and directed the company's accounting and finance support functions. Throughout her career, Ms. Felix has established herself as a leader in developing and implementing best-in-class processes to help her organization achieve exceptional accounting, financial planning and analysis, budgeting, forecasting and dash-boarding. She has also demonstrated her ability to serve as a positive change agent in organizations and, during her time at American Management Systems (AMS), Ms. Felix successfully transformed a very decentralized finance organization into one cohesive unit.  Early in her career, Ms. Felix spent 8 years with the public accounting firm Deloitte & Touche working with high growth technology companies.

Ms. Felix is a graduate of the University of Maryland and is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and Virginia Society of CPAs.
