OUR MISSION

We share the stories of humans in public service, reflecting the diversity in America. We want to create a more positive perception of government. We aim to increase diversity in government through leadership and career development opportunities and create a community of public servants across the country.

OUR FOUNDER

Brian Whittaker

Brian is an Afro-Latino tech leader who is passionate about creating a more equitable and representative government. While starting his career in the private sector, Brian quickly followed in the footsteps of his family (Teacher, Nurse and Police Officer) and joined the public service. While working in the Federal government, Brian has led organizations that prioritize using technology to improve services for the public. His project catalog includes a variety of projects ranging from improving the farm loan application process to revamping the online submission and processing of civil rights claims.
