Dovarius Peoples has been appointed deputy CIO at the General Services Administration (GSA) to start Oct. 6, said a GSA spokesperson in a statement to GovCIO Media & Research.
“We are thrilled to welcome Dovarius ⏤ a leader who is passionate about improving government services through technology ⏤ to GSA, where he will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our organization,” said GSA CIO David Shive.
