TCG’s Latest Rising Star Profiled in Federal Computer Week

Lisa Alferieff recognized for significant contribution to Federal IT

Washington, DC, September 26, 2012:  Federal Computer Week has posted a profile of TCG Chief Operating Officer Lisa Alferieff in recognition of her being named a recipient of FCW’s 2012 Rising Star award.

The Rising Star award program recognizes top public and private sector employees who have made an early and substantive mark in the government information technology community. This is the fourth year in a row that a TCG employee has been honored as a Rising Star. Ms. Alferieff was one of 12 individuals from over 75 nominees selected for this prestigious honor.

A PMP-certified project manager, Ms. Alferieff oversees TCG operations. She takes a holistic view of TCG’s performance, integrating technical, administrative, analytical, and other resources to create teams that solve significant challenges in government, operating at the speed of a startup while retaining accurate and appropriate accountability to taxpayers.

“Every day Lisa shows our customers and our staff how to deliver excellent results,” said Dan Turner, President of TCG. “She is a consummate professional and a fantastic mentor to our junior advisors. We’re incredibly proud that she’s part of the TCG family.”

Ms. Alferieff and the other Rising Stars will be recognized for their achievements in the government technology community at this year’s GCN Awards Gala. This 25th anniversary event, to be held October 24, 2012, at the Ritz-Carlton in Tysons Corner, VA, will also recognize extraordinary work by agency IT teams whose innovation or achievements using technology have made a significant impact on the performance of their agencies or the services they provide.
