Matthew Graviss

Federal Leadership
At the State Department, Matthew Graviss has the dual responsibility of leading the agency’s work with data and artificial intelligence. Since taking on that role in 2020 — he’s the first person to hold the full-time chief data officer position — he’s focused on expanding the use of data within the department. Among other responsibilities, Graviss also leads the Center for Analytics, which is meant to inform the decision-making of the State Department’s tens of thousands of employees. He’s also taken the helm of an AI enterprise strategy.
