Executive Director Annastasia Walker

As the Executive Director of the City’s Office of Public Safety Administration (OPSA), Annastasia Walker oversees work to reduce costs, increase efficiencies and improve administrative functions across the City’s three public safety departments, the Chicago Police Department (CPD), Chicago Fire Department (CFD) and the Office of Emergency Management and Communications (OEMC).

For nearly two decades, she has proudly served in a host of roles that have made our public safety departments not only stronger but more efficient at every level. Working at OEMC and CFD, Walker has managed budget processes, federal grant initiatives, intergovernmental affairs and operations for the public safety departments. Serving as OPSA’s first Executive Director, she will lead the City’s efforts to centralize administrative support and resources from all three public safety departments to streamline operational efficiencies citywide.
