THE 3-MINUTE INTERVIEW: Edward L. Blansitt III

Published



Blansitt, a former auditor for the National Science Foundation and U.S. Department of Commerce, recently took over the post of Montgomery County inspector general. What attracted you to the top watchdog position in Montgomery County?

I heard about the position and thought that it sounded interesting. I have spent most of my adult life in the D.C. area. I used to spend a lot of time here and I liked it. The job is consistent with what I had been doing in the federal sector; I thought it would give me an opportunity to use my skills in a positive way.
