In this episode of Former Fed Friday, hosts Shelley McGuire and Hunter Gros sit with Meikle Paschal, Senior Solutions Director at Amivero and former RPA Program Manager at USCIS’ Center of Excellence.
Meikle brings a career rooted in national security and IT modernization, from testing border security systems at CBP to leading automation initiatives at DHS. Now, less than a year into his role on the industry side, he’s leveraging that federal experience to drive innovation, human-centered solutions, and mission outcomes for DHS and beyond.
He shares stories from his time working hands-on with border technology, standing up automation programs inside USCIS, and now tackling industry challenges where precision, passion, and transparency define success. Meikle also reflects on what makes for strong government-industry relationships when delivering high-stakes IT solutions—and why good work leads to even better work in the future.
Tune in for insights from a leader who’s built his career on bridging mission needs with modern technology, and who’s not afraid to add a little humor along the way.
