About Adriana Rivera

I am the daughter of 2 Navy veterans, a UC Santa Barbara and Penn State Alumna with a passion for problem solving, negotiation, and policy analysis. I have a record of securing wins through NDAA and appropriations, coalition building, and being a change maker in the defense policy space. Currently, I am the Director of Government Affairs at Persistent Systems, LLC, where I lead the company’s government affairs strategy. Previously, I worked as a Military Legislative Assistant in the United States Senate where I led the Defense, Space, Appropriations, and Veterans Affairs policy portfolios. I also serve as a member of the Penn State Graduate School of International Affairs Advisory Board.
