Leonel Garciga came into office as the chief information officer for the U.S. Army a year ago, in June 2023. Since then, he has taken charge of carrying out his predecessor Raj Iyer’s Digital Transformation Strategy and quickly made good on his reputation as a boundary-pushing accelerator.
“His technical expertise as the former top tech officer for Army intelligence, combined with his reputation for cutting through red tape make Leonel a well-equipped leader to oversee the Army’s $18 billion cyber and IT portfolio and an obvious pick for this year’s Wash100 list,” Garrettson commented.
