Nicole Graves is a results-driven technology leader and Director at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs with a track record of turning around complex IT programs and delivering large-scale infrastructure and application upgrades. Over more than three decades of hands-on IT and project leadership—from technical roles and a small IT services business to senior program management at Leidos—she blends practical systems administration, cloud and ServiceNow implementations, and ITIL/Agile best practices. At VA she progressed rapidly from IT specialist to Acting Director and now Director, demonstrating strength in team building, governance, and mission-focused delivery. She has led successful migrations and upgrades including Oracle, SQL, Enterprise Linux/AD integration, IaaS regional rollouts, and ServiceNow recoveries, and has mentored other project managers. Based in Austin, she pairs public-sector program rigor with private-sector delivery instincts and certifications in ITIL, cloud workshops, and PMP prep. A detail worth noting: her background includes surgical-technical experience early in her career, reflecting a long-standing aptitude for high-stakes, precision work.
