The highest-paid employee in President Donald Trump’s White House isn’t a familiar name. In fact, little is known about Jacalynne Becker Klopp, the presidential advisor bringing home nearly a quarter of a million dollars annually. Klopp flies so far under the radar that Fortune could not find any publicly available images of her in the federal government archives, despite her long history of public service.
“Jacki is a senior executive that has served in the federal government for over 17 years,” White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson told Fortune. “She is a dedicated public servant and plays a critical role in the Trump Administration’s success as a top advisor to Border Czar Tom Homan and other officials.”
While few details are available about Klopp’s background and duties, she has a long history working for the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
