GAMBRILLS, MD (JUNE 27, 2002) –
Local Annapolis high-tech business leader, Steve Rizzi,
today filed to run for the Maryland House of Delegates in

“Our district deserves someone who is
experienced working with the legislature,” said Mr. Rizzi.
“Since 1998, I have served on a number of task forces and
committees where I have worked with our state’s
legislators, and I believe that I can forge consensus to
help move our state forward.” Mr. Rizzi continued by
saying, “Additionally, my experience building a successful
high-tech business in the county has taught me what is
needed to make tough fiscal choices that lead to growth.
These are lessons that more politicians need to learn.”

who is running for the open House of Delegates seat in
District 33A. Mr. Rizzi strongly believes that education
and economic development will be key issues in the
campaign. He has served in advisory capacities to the
U.S. Department of Education, as well as the Anne Arundel
County Board of Education, and his work in education has
been recognized with a Computerworld Smithsonian
Innovation Award.
Mr. Rizzi’s expertise in making
government more entrepreneurial has been sought by both
the state of Maryland and the U.S. Department of Defense,
and he has been involved in the writing of three bills in
the Maryland legislature which are now law.
Steve Rizzi is a Corporate Vice
President at Science Applications International
Corporation (SAIC). SAIC is the nation’s largest
