Matt Luby

Administrator

A childhood friend and chief of staff for Vivek Ramaswamy, he has apparently stayed involved in DOGE even as Vivek departed. He is linked to DOGE in January 2025 and was spotted at the Department of the Interior in April, but it’s unclear what he was doing in the interim for DOGE (or Vivek).
