TIMOTHY J. KEATING


EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT, GOVERNMENT OPERATIONS, THE BOEING CO., ARLINGTON


Keating, who grew up the youngest of six chil- dren, along with his twin brother, in northeastern Pennsylvania, didn’t expect to be a leader in one of the country’s largest companies. In 2008, he joined Boeing, where he leads the company’s public policy efforts and the Boeing Global Engagement organi- zation. Previously, Keating was senior vice president of global government relations for Honeywell International, as well as serving President Bill Clinton as his special assistant and staff director for White House Legislative Affairs. At the start of his career, Keating held several


positions with the U.S. House of Representatives, including assistant floor manager for the Democratic leadership. He serves on several boards, including the National Archives Foundation and WETA public television and radio.


EDUCATION: University of Scranton (B.A.) and honorary doctorates from the University of South Carolina and Africa University


BEST ADVICE: Act with integrity. Do the right thing — always and even when no one is looking.


NEW LIFE EXPERIENCE RECENTLY: I have recently started to follow a plant-based diet and occasionally will test out the final recipes for my wife, Ann, who is a talented plant-based chef and food blogger.


GEORGE KRIVO


CEO, DYNCORP INTERNATIONAL, MCLEAN


Krivo was named CEO in 2017 after serving as DynCorp’s chief operating officer and holding other executive roles for the defense contractor, which has provided operations and maintenance support for U.S. Army troops in Afghanistan since 2009 and received a $1.7 billion task order for aviation maintenance from the U.S. Navy. In the third quarter of 2019, the company posted a record backlog of $6.9 billion in projects. He’s also a retired officer in the U.S. Army, where he was a policy adviser to the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and strategy adviser to the chief of the staff of the Army, with a focus on missile defense and expertise in the Middle East and northeast Asia. A graduate of Cornell College, where he was


elected to the board of trustees in June, and the University of Oklahoma, he serves on the board of directors for the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors, an organization that cares for families of military casualties. Before joining DynCorp, which is owned by parent company Cerberus Capital, Krivo held positions with Virginia-based federal contrac- tors Science Applications International Corp. (SAIC) and DRS Technologies Inc. (now Leonardo DRS).


NAZZIC S. KEENE


CEO, SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORP. (SAIC), RESTON


In May, SAIC was named to the Fortune 500 list of America’s largest corporations for the first time since the technology integrator spun off from the renamed Leidos seven years ago. Keene, who earned her bach- elor’s degree at the University of Arizona, oversees the defense technology contractor, which generated $6.4 billion in 2019, employs 25,500 workers (including 6,000 in Virginia) and is poised for growth in the government services market, thanks to its focused merger and acquisition strategy. Last year, it acquired Engility for $2.5 billion, increasing its presence in national security and space contracts, and in March, SAIC bought Unisys Federal, a top provider of infrastructure modernization and cloud migration, for $1.2 billion.


I ADMIRE: My mother. Her strength of character and calm determination helped to shape many things in my life.


MY PASSION: At this stage of life, I love spend- ing time with my family, including my wonderful grandchildren.

DAN CHIEF


TECHNOLOGY OFFICER, BLOCK.ONE, BLACKSBURG


Larimer, who grew up in Northern Virginia, is one of the co-founders of the blockchain software company Block.one, along with CEO Brendan Blumer. Block.one in 2018 received a major invest- ment from PayPal co-founder Peter Tiel. Since that investment, Block.one has grown to have a 6,567% return on investment. Te company announced in September that it


would invest $10 million to build its U.S. headquar- ters in Arlington County, while keeping its Blacksburg offices (where Larimer will continue to work). Last year, however, Block.one reached a $24 million settlement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), in connection with the compa- ny’s unregistered initial coin offering of digital tokens, which raised $4 billion between 2017 and 2018. Larimer is the co-founder of several other block-


chain companies, including BitShares and Steemit. Block.one developed the free, open-source EOS.IO blockchain protocol (invented by Larimer), which eliminates transaction fees on cryptocurrency and conducts millions of transactions per second. He earned his bachelor’s degree in computer


science from Virginia Tech, where he serves as a guest lecturer and curriculum adviser. Larimer was also a keynote speaker at Tech’s first Blocksburg Summit about blockchain technology, held in 2019.
