Leadership

Corey Mock has served as North Dakota’s ninth Chief Information Officer since 2024, joining the executive branch after 16 years in the North Dakota House of Representatives. A lifelong North Dakotan and 

proud UND graduate, Corey brings an insatiable curiosity and a strategic, solution-focused mindset to public service.

He believes all other state agencies are civic superheroes—and NDIT is their trusted sidekick. Together, they partner to deliver secure, efficient, and forward-thinking solutions that strengthen agency missions and improve services for all North Dakotans.

A mold-defying CIO, Corey challenges assumptions and isn’t shy about asking the tough (and often uncomfortable) questions that drive progress. He pushes the limits of what’s possible through technology, partnerships, and public policy—and takes pride in being the most unforgettable average guy you’ll ever meet. His personal motto? “The older I get, the less I know.”

Corey is empowered by an incredible team with a long history of service, support, and quiet excellence. He brings personal and professional connections from all 70,000 square miles of the Peace Garden State and has a deep love for its stories, people, and potential.

He’s also a proud dad to three wonderfully unique kids (all aspiring nerds), human to two golden retrievers, a state and local history enthusiast, and a retired stock car racer who still believes life is best lived a little sideways. 

Greg Hoffman has been with NDIT since 2005 and has helped lead the agency since 2014. He holds bachelor’s degrees in accounting and business administration, as well as a master’s in business management. He’s also a certified technology business manager.  

Greg was the first rate analyst ever hired by NDIT and has enjoyed building strong administrative teams to support the agency’s needs.

In his spare time, Greg enjoys spending time with family and friends while staying active. Fishing, hunting, and playing softball are among his main passions, with cooking, listening to music, and playing cards filling any remaining time.
