Walsh is responsible for the company's strategy to educate and build support for CACl's programs and capabilities on Capitol Hfll, as well as overseeing CACl's industry associations and client executives.

He joined CACI in 2020 as Senior Vice President and Corporate Strategic Advisor, after more than three decades in the Executive Branch and U.S. military.

Prior to joining CACI, he served as Assistant to the President and Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations at the White House, where he was responsible for managing the overall administrative, technology, security, and military support structure for the President of the United States.
He also oversaw the day-to-day management of the White House, the Executive Office of the President, Presidential facilities, and the President's schedule and travel operations.

Walsh's previous White House positions include Deputy Assistant to the President and Director of the White House Military Office (WHMO), Deputy Director of the WHMO, and Military Aide to both President George W. Bush and President Barack Obama.

As Director of WHMO, Walsh was responsible for overseeing all White House military support.

With this considerable responsibility, Walsh also coordinated national command authority decisions across the Department of Defense and other government agencies.

His operational assignments included leadership cadre of a Department of Homeland Security (DHS)/Coast Guard air facility; department head on a Coast Guard cutter; officer in charge of a counter-narcotics team; and instructor pilot/aircraft commander on six military fixed-wing aircraft.

Walsh's military staff assignments included serving as a senior staffer for a $750 million DHS aircraft acquisition project and as U.S. Senate liaison, where his advocacy on behalf of the U.S. Coast Guard led to a record, more than $10 billion, increase in annual appropriations.

He holds a bachelor's degree in civil engineering from the U.S. Coast Guard Academy, a master's degree in quality systems management from the National Graduate School, and a master's degree in aviation safety from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University.
