Richard Wiley
Police Officer
Jason Kiefer
Imagery Analyst
My name is Jason Kiefer. I have worked at NGA since October 2010. I have a BA in History and a MA in International Relations. I worked in the private sector for 10 years prior to onboarding with NGA. My jobs in the private sector had nothing to do with the work role I conduct on a daily basis at NGA. I am an Imagery Analyst by trade with the agency. While with the agency, I have deployed three times in support of our customers in the field. I enjoy the work at NGA and wish to pursue further opportunities in the agency.
