M. Andre Goodfriend
U.S. Department of State
Office Director
Washington, DC
As a serving Foreign Service Officer, I advocate American foreign policy, protect American citizens, and promote American business interests throughout the world. I and my colleagues staff our Embassies, consulates and other diplomatic missions. Currently, as Director of the State Department's Information Resource Management's Office of eDiplomacy, I seek to ensure that State's IT investment fully serves its business needs, meshes smoothly with eGovernment initiatives and more fully exploits existing networks and technologies.
