I am pleased to announce the appointment of Debra A. Fiori to the position of Corporate Vice
President and Global Talent Director, effective February 2, 2015. Debra will succeed David R.
Goodrich, who will retire after more than 30 years of exemplary service with Parsons.
David started his career with Parsons in Saudi Arabia in 1981. After working in numerous
human resources positions in the Pasadena headquarters, he was appointed Manager of
Human Resources for The Ralph M. Parsons Company in 1992. In 1996, David moved to
Houston as Vice President, Human Resources, for the former energy and chemicals business

Parsons.
Debra joined Parsons in 2007, and she has more than 20 years of experience in all facets of
talent management, including serving as Human Resources Director at RTKL Associates and
in human resources positions at Danaher Tool Group. Since joining Parsons, she has served
as Vice President, Talent Management, for Parsons Commercial Technology Group and,
most recently, she served as Vice President of Talent Management for Parsons
Transportation Group, Inc. (PTG). In this role, she has been responsible for all facets of
human resources for PTG, which consists of more than 5,000 employees in diverse markets
and geographies throughout the world. Debra holds a bachelors degree in public relations
and communication from Carroll College in Helena, Montana, and a masters degree in
