Before Dots and Bridges, Pete served as a Cabinet-level federal CTO, not once, but twice. First at the US Department of Education for eight years, and then at the US Department of Energy for seven and a half years. Before those two, he was actually with the DoD since the beginning of things. Pete: It's nice to be on the other side of the mic. I have all the respect in the world for what you're doing, in addition to your other jobs and incredible pedigree you have. But I love the conversations and it's a treat to be able to tell my story a little bit, at least. Carolyn: Your unique perspective on technology and federal agencies, as well as from the commercial side, it's going to be a great conversation. Let's just start with your story. Will you give us an overview of Dots and Bridges and how it came about? Then share your journey in the government and where you are now. Pete: I tell folks I can do five hours or I can do it in about a minute. But there's about 32 years there, wrapped up. I'm a Washingtonian native. I grew up in the Washington DC area, in the suburbs of Maryland, Montgomery County and went to high school in Washington DC. It took me to Villanova University for my undergrad, where I studied liberal arts and communications. I wanted to be a sports broadcaster. Pete Tseronis Had the Coolest Job in the WorldPete: I'm 54, and I do have a nine-year-old. So a little bit of a late bloomer. Four kids, a great wife from Pittsburgh, and yes, I have an Australian Labradoodle named Phineas Maximus Tseronis. So that is my life, my family. I came out of college, I ended up back here in DC, and interned at the Pentagon. One day, I woke up and I'm working in the Pentagon. I thought it was the coolest thing in the world. Didn't have a plan to work for the government. I didn't know much about it, even though it was in my backyard. But it put me on my journey. The time was '91. I had the chance, when I was working as a civilian, the Department of the Army, to dabble in some of the work that the DARPA community was working on. The internet work was what it was called. Before I knew it, I had a bug, an itch that I scratched. And I was like, "This is going to be a big deal." I was that guy typing in on a text-based, character-based, if you will, screen: www.espn.com. I'm like, "Whoa, I can see all this news before it's in the paper tomorrow." The itch was there. I said, "I'm going to go learn this internet thing." At that point, it was three years at DoD. I had a chance to move over to the Department of Education and do some computer security work. That was becoming a thing, like if you're going to use this tool, security matters. So we'll talk a little bit about that today and its evolution, but I jumped back to school. Pete Tseronis Got the Coolest Education for Three YearsPete: I enrolled at Johns Hopkins University and got my master's degree in telecommunications. I've wanted to know how this worked. How do you type something in and then it's there on your screen? That was the coolest education for three years. Every time I'd go back to class, it was like the material we learned was outdated. For three years it was like all of us were...
