Eileen Vidrine, a ten-year veteran of the US Army, has been selected as the Air Force’s new chief data officer. Vidrine had actually been serving as the Air Force’s chief data officer for the last four months but was only named to the post formally in October.

Monica Jackson’s report appeared in ExecutiveGov:

Vidrine succeeds Maj. Gen. Kimberly Crider, who now serves as mobilization assistant to the undersecretary of the Air Force.

Prior to joining the Air Force, Vidrine worked as a temporary detail to the White House for nine months. She also held various leadership positions in the Department of Defense, Office of the Director of National Intelligence and Defense Intelligence Agency and Carney Interactive.
In addition, Vidrine previously taught information systems at Northern Virginia Community College from 1999 to 2002.
