Since joining Arlington County in 2022, Touhill’s efforts have included helping launch the Arlington Innovation Fund, which helps support local tech startups. Recipients have included SportAI, which provides analytics for fantasy sports and sports betting, and GenLogs, an AI company specializing in ground freight supply chains.
Amid the Trump administration’s cuts to the federal workforce and federal contracting spending, Touhill lately has been working to help spread the word about assistance and resources for those who have been laid off.
He previously served as senior vice president and chief of staff at the Alexandria Economic Development Partnership, where he helped with the successful campaign to land Amazon.com’s HQ2 East Coast headquarters.
Touhill earned a degree in government and international politics from George Mason University and a Master of Public Administration from George Washington University.
