At MITRE, he oversaw the Corporate Strategy Office, Center for Strategic Competition, Center for Data-Driven Policy and Enterprise Computing and Information Services. His leadership advanced MITRE’s mission to provide data-driven, objective recommendations that strengthen agency security, efficiency and mission outcomes.
“Cedric’s leadership marks an exciting new chapter for EIT.
