A Salute to Her Success

Liz Porter ’93 EE, an executive vice president at Leidos, was featured in the Winter 2024 cover story of Military Spouse magazine. In the article, Porter discusses how she built her successful engineering career while navigating military moves in support of her husband, US Navy officer Adam Porter ’94 CLAS—a challenging feat considering military spouses have an unemployment rate of more than seven times the national average, the magazine notes. “When I think about some of the most successful people that I have working for me, there’s a level of independence and there’s a level of ‘can do,’” says Porter, a member of the College’s Engineering Advisory Board. “I think military spouses really bring that no matter what their background is.”
