Parsons announced Nov. 22 the appointment of Carey A. Smith as president of its federal business unit. She will be responsible for serving a variety of U.S. federal government agency customers in the defense, environmental, infrastructure, security and intelligence services markets.

Carey will lead our federal business unit as it brings people, processes and technology together to provide innovative solutions to our expanding base of U.S. federal government customers. I also want to thank Tom for his outstanding performance as interim head of our federal business unit.”

Prior to joining Honeywell, she held a variety of positions with Lockheed Martin Corp.. She started her career with IBM Federal Systems.

Smith earned a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from Ohio Northern University and a master’s degree in electrical engineering from Syracuse University.
