Trump taps Michael Kratsios to be administration's first Chief Technology Officer

President Trump announced Thursday that he would nominate Michael Kratsios to serve as the country's Chief Technology Officer, a role that has remained vacant since the beginning of the Trump administration.

Kratsios has served as deputy U.S. chief technology officer and as deputy assistant to the president for technology policy since January 2017.

Kratsios, 32, is well-connected in the field after having worked as chief of staff at Thiel Capital, an investment management firm, before joining Trump’s transition team, Bloomberg reported.

He has played a key role in the administration's policies on 5G, national broadband, drones and artificial intelligence, according to a White House announcement.

He's been in office a little over two years and the lazy fuck finally gets around to filling the position.
