Chris is the Acting Director for Cyber Workforce Management at VA. Fueled by a passion to destroy silos (no grain is safe on his watch), much of his work is focused on bringing federal partners together to think and act differently about the challenges facing the cyber workforce. Whether he's leading cross agency projects to pay cyber talent what they deserve, developing tools to open the aperture and on who can work in cyber, or streamlining the process to get your foot in the government door - Chris doesn't shy away from the chance to disrupt the status quo. When not silo-hunting, you're likely to find him taking on new projects at the local rock climbing gym.
