Chris Braccio, vice president of human resources at American Systems, has been appointed to the board of directors for the Chantilly, Virginia-based government services contractor.
She will fill a board seat that became vacant when 43-year company veteran Joe Kopfman retired, American Systems said Monday.
“Her passion for her profession and deep commitment to the employee-owners will undoubtedly prove to be an asset to the Board and the company,” said Bill Hoover, chairman of American Systems and a previous Wash100 Award winner.
In her current role, Braccio oversees the company’s human capital organization, community affairs and charitable programs with the goal of aligning its workforce with the corporate mission.
She previously held HR roles at World Kitchen, StarBand Communications, Sunrise Assisted Living, GTE, Contel, Eaton and National Semiconductor.
