Tiffany Robinson has been appointed as the new director of the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation.

Robinson, who most recently served as deputy chief of staff in the office of Gov. Glenn Youngkin, has nearly 15 years of experience in state and local government, with a track record in strategic policy development, public administration, and community-focused initiatives.

“I am honored to join the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation and am excited to lead such an important agency that plays a vital role in connecting communities and enhancing mobility across the Commonwealth,” said Robinson, a UMBC and University of Baltimore Law alum who served as the Secretary of Labor in the administration of former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan from 2019-2023.

“I look forward to collaborating with our partners and stakeholders to build on DRPT’s strong foundation and to drive forward initiatives that improve the quality of life for all Virginians,” Robinson said.
