Segars brings a mission-first mindset and deep alignment with PSG’s core values—a perspective shaped by decades of military service and collaboration with FED-GOV programs, projects and partners. “I’m thrilled to join PSG in this critical role, as I've long respected PSG’s outstanding contributions to the Air Force, DOD and DOE enterprises. PSG’s leadership is unmatched, their technology is unparalled - spanning a 40-year history of leading the modernization of the defense industrial base and critical infrastructure with multiple first and only unmatched capabilities.
