Biography

Rodney P. Hunt is majority owner and co-founder of RS Information Systems, Inc., a mission-oriented business focused on information technology, systems engineering, telecommunications, and scientific services and solutions.

Since co-founding RSIS in 1992, Hunt has led the company through a period of uninterrupted growth, with annual revenues in excess of $330 million. Its professional staff, now numbering over 1,500, supports 100 prime contracts with civilian and defense agencies of the federal government.

Hunt has 20 years of experience in systems engineering, information management and business development, including three years as marketing director of another small and disadvantaged information technology firm. He also was a senior associate for Booz Allen Hamilton, where he led the Technical and Engineering Systems Group in support of government and commercial clients.

In 2006, Hunt received the Northern Virginia Urban League Diversity Award for his commitment to diversity in the RSIS workforce and among the company's vendors and small business partners; and Virginia Business magazine named him one of 20 Virginians who transformed their industry in the past two decades. Last year, U.S. Small Business Administration named him Small Business Champion of the Year for his efforts in helping small businesses -- largely those owned by women and minorities -- crack the highly competitive federal contracting business.

Rodney Hunt holds a dual bachelor of science degree in Operations Research and Industrial Engineering (ORIE) from Cornell and George Washington Universities.
