Early in his career, Forman took on the role of a principal at IBM Global Services, heading a federal government practice to expand the company’s public sector e-business consulting services.  

Forman earned his bachelor’s degree in economics from Ohio State University and a master’s degree in public policy analysis from the University of Chicago.
