George Sifakis
George Anthony Sifakis (born 1969) is a former United States federal government official and government relations professional. Since November 2017, he is the CEO of Ideagen Global. He previously served in the transition team for Donald Trump's first presidency at the Department of Commerce, before serving as Deputy Director and later Director of the Office of Public Liaison in the Trump administration from January to September 2017.
Sifakis is Greek Orthodox. He received a BA from Rhode Island College and obtained a paralegal certification from Northeastern University. In 2000, he received a Master of Science in Political Science from the Suffolk University Graduate School of Government. Sifakis also completed the Harvard Kennedy School Executive Education program on Governance and attended the Southern New England School of Law. Sifakis and his wife Adriana live in Alexandria, Virginia with their three children.
Sifakis was a member of the George W. Bush White House.
In November 2016, Sifakis was named to the Department of Commerce "landing team" as part of the transition process for President Donald Trump. Sifakis assisted with the confirmation process of Wilbur Ross as Secretary of Commerce.
Sifakis joined the Administration as Special Assistant to the President and Deputy Director of Public Liaison on January 23, 2017, and was subsequently appointed Assistant to the President and later Director of the Office of Public Liaison on March 6, 2017, one of approximately 20 senior White House staff directly reporting to the White House Chief of Staff, Reince Priebus.
On August 18, 2017, multiple Trump administration sources acknowledged that Sifakis would be departing the White House in September. An official White House statement, as reported by The Wall Street Journal's Michael C. Bender in an official Twitter post, included Sifakis' originally planned mid-September departure:
On September 15, 2017, Politico reported that Presidential Personnel Director John DeStefano would temporarily serve as interim Director of the Office of Public Liaison when Sifakis returned to the private sector at the end of the month.
Sifakis is a partner at Capitol Counsel. He is a candidate for a 2025 US Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award for his national service.
