But Bernadette was – and continues to be – a leader on the future of semiconductor policy and how forward-thinking companies can dramatically grow their business through the CHIPS Act.” 
 Said Bernadette Carrillo, “The impact of the CHIPS Act is just starting to be felt and nothing short of our economic and national security is at stake. As states build ecosystems to compete for a growing domestic semiconductor industry, I’m excited to work with current and future clients to ensure they maximize their return on their critical investments in our workforce and technological leadership.”
