Dwayne Blake upon his retirement on Jan. 1. In her new role,
Thomas’ responsibilities will include acting as the primary
interface between the investment community and the company with a

vice president and chief financial officer.

2006 and has held director-level positions in supply chain
management, business management, business development, and
contracts and pricing. In 2017, she was promoted to corporate
director of investor relations at HII’s corporate office. Prior to
HII, Thomas spent 12 years with Lockheed Martin. A native of
Pennsylvania, Thomas earned a bachelor’s degree in economics from
Bucknell University and an MBA in finance from State University of
New York at Binghamton.
“Christie’s 15 years of experience with HII and the two
shipbuilding divisions, plus 12 years of experience with
another firm in the defense industry positions her well for
success in this new role,” Stiehle said. “Her financial management,
contract and pricing knowledge, along with her leadership skills,
will bring great value to the team as we continue the
transformation and growth of Technical Solutions and maintain our
core business of shipbuilding.”
