I am a distinguished national security executive and U.S. Army veteran who served as the Chief Data and Artificial Intelligence Officer for the Department of the Air Force. With over 35 years of experience leading transformative initiatives across defense, intelligence, air, and space domains, I have established myself as a pioneering force in federal data leadership.
This path has gifted me with a wide-ranging perspective on the strategic and tactical application of data and AI within the realms of national defense and security. The focus of my work is to help address and untangle complex data and AI challenges, but from a different vantage point.
I was honored with the 2024 DataIQ Lifetime Achievement Award.
