Eileen Vidrine
Federal Leadership
Eileen Vidrine is well known in the federal technology community for her leadership as chief data officer of the Air Force. But in January, she was tapped by the Federal CIO Clare Martorana to be her senior strategic adviser for data. “I was honored to be asked by our Federal CIO … to lead data innovation at a federal level,” Vidrine said on FedScoop’s Let’s Talk About IT podcast. “This is really an opportunity to leverage the lessons learned and the proven state-of-the-art practices of bringing together data experts with our functional leaders to drive what I call data insights into that decision-making process. Tactical to strategic, it’s all about the art of the possible and then scaling data-driven decisions across the federal government.”
