Speaker:

Renee Wynn, Former Chief Information Officer, NASA

I have extensive knowledge about guiding government agencies through complex digital transformations. I led programs at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and served as the CIO at an iconic federal agency, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). I am currently a member of the Advisory Boards for Aquia.us, Level6, and Interos Solutions where I provide input on how best to use their products in the federal government. I am actively seeking to build a corporate board portfolio that will benefit from my government, cyber, digital transformation, sustainability and climate change experience.

I currently serve as an independent board member for Axonius. I am on two non-profit boards, Virginia Tech Applied Research Center (VT-ARC) and The Women’s Center. VT-ARC is a nonprofit, university affiliated research organization leveraging the power of Virginia Tech, bridging Industry, Academia and Government to deliver superior analytic and technology solutions. For The Women’s Center, I am a member of the Finance Committee where I lead the enterprise risk management process. The Women’s Center is a DC-based, non-profit organization dedicated to improving the community’s mental health and well-being through counseling, education, support and advocacy.
