“In close collaboration with government and industry partners, ARC is keenly focused on addressing systemic risks to critical functions that underpin our economic security,” Lemott said.
Fun Fact: Lemott enjoys working on classic cars in his free time. “It’s a hands-on way to unwind and problem-solve differently than I do at work,” he said. “I also prioritize quality time with my family, whether it’s watching my children play sports, a weekend road trip, or just a quiet dinner together.” He also enjoys working out.
