“From devastating floods in 2019 to the 2020 global pandemic, Paul has worked around the clock to coordinate Iowa’s emergency response,” Reynolds said in a released statement. “I appreciate his willingness to challenge the status quo to improve efficiency and functionality in state government. I am excited for him as he pursues his next opportunity.” 

Reynolds appointed Trombino to head the Iowa Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management in January. Before that, he served as interim director of the Department of Administrative Services from 2020 to 2021 as well as the Governor’s Chief Operating Officer from 2019 to 2021.

Before working for the State of Iowa, Trombino worked for the Wisconsin Department of Transportation for 17 years in various capacities including bureau director, operations director, and civil engineering supervisor of the Highway Division.
