Why are you passionate about your work at Booz Allen? I’m passionate about everything I do, whether it’s rooting for my favorite sports teams, coaching youth sports, serving the community, or working with brilliant, passionate people. At Booz Allen, I’ve been fortunate to lead businesses and serve clients across a whole range of federal, state and local, international, and commercial sectors. I’m a better person and professional for having done that.

What are the three biggest challenges our federal clients currently face? I could give you any number but I’d offer:

Accelerating innovation—such as bringing commercial technologies around data, networking, and security to serve warfighters, veterans, and citizens.
Scaling technology adoption through open architectures—ensuring that we enable future innovations and avoid lock-in to outdated technologies.
Integrating information across previous “boundaries”—such as defense services or domains, electronic health records, and research and regulatory platforms.

What excites me is that our firm’s ability to blend our consulting heritage with cutting-edge technology puts us in a unique position to provide the best, mission-focused solutions to our clients and to the constituents they serve.

Why is it important for Booz Allen to be a diverse and inclusive workplace? Diversity is at the heart of what it means to Be Booz Allen. To truly empower people to change the world and solve the world’s toughest problems, you must have diverse ways of approaching problems and diverse talent to apply their unique gifts to those problems. This is one of the reasons I’m passionate about diversity, equity, and inclusion, and I’ve served as executive sponsor of our Multicultural business resource group and African American Network.

Where do you see Booz Allen in the next 100 years? We’ll still be focused on clients. I don’t know the “what” of the things we’ll do, but I know the “who” and “how”—smart, passionate people overcoming tough challenges.
