Brooks Morgan
Exited govt: 8/04/25 (inferred)
The CEO of an educational startup, Brooks Morgan joined the DOGE team working within the Department of Education in early February. Unlike most DOGE staff who served as special government employees, he was instead hired as a part-time consultant working for free. It’s likely he was later formally appointed to a role, since he has been detailed from Education to both the Department of the Treasury and FDIC in early April.
