CO-FOUNDER & CEO
Beth Garvey
Former Chairman, President, and CEO of an NYSE-listed staffing and professional services company. Twenty-five years of enterprise transformation, acquisitions, and global growth. She has built the machine that places people at scale.
Former Chief of Staff to a House Defense and Homeland Security appropriator. Registered defense lobbyist. Has directed and secured more than $750 million in congressional funding for clients.
She has sat on all three sides of the table: the buyer as Chief of Staff, the seller as a registered lobbyist who represented companies like Palantir, SpaceX, RTX, and as a builder, starting her own company building a product that sold to federal stakeholders.
She knows the reality because she has experienced it from all sides.
