Navy’s Aaron Weis & Illuminate’s Tameika Hollis Featured as 2023 Wash100 Winners

On Monday, Executive Mosaic shone a spotlight on Aaron Weis, chief information officer for the U.S. Department of the Navy, and Tameika Hollis, CEO of Illuminate, as winners of the 2023 Wash100 Award.

The Wash100 was established in 2014 as a comprehensive list of the most influential and powerful executives poised to shape the future of the government contracting landscape.

Weis and Hollis each earned the prestigious accolade this year through their exceptional demonstrations of leadership, innovation, vision, reliability, achievement and impact in the consequential and ever-changing GovCon ecosystem.

As Navy CIO, Weis has been foundational to the service’s digital modernization and information superiority initiatives. During his time in the role, Weis has spearheaded information technology architecture improvements, network enhancements, cloud migration efforts and other leading-edge technology programs designed to strengthen the Navy’s power against rising peer and near-peer threats. This marks Weis’ fourth consecutive year of recognition.

Hollis won her first Wash100 Award this year in acknowledgement of her elevation to CEO of the data collection and analysis services provider, Illuminate, at the end of 2022. Hollis was chosen to receive the forward-looking Wash100 Award because her newly-earned top role at a growing GovCon organization positions her for what Executive Mosaic anticipates to be great success in 2023 and beyond.
