Rosslyn Business Improvement District Promotes Victor Carcamo to Vice President, Operations & Public Safety
ROSSLYN, VA. (March 6, 2025) — The Rosslyn Business Improvement District (BID) has announced the promotion of Victor Carcamo to the position of Vice President, Operations and Public Safety. In this newly expanded role, Carcamo will oversee an integrated operations program that combines public safety, cleanliness, homeless outreach, and beautification—an intentionally holistic operations program to enhance Rosslyn. The evolution of this role, which builds on Carcamo’s extensive experience managing ambassadors, cleaning, and hospitality, highlights Rosslyn BID’s growing commitment to proactive security measures, including Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED), partnerships with community organizations, and a responsive approach to evolving stakeholder needs and feedback.
For several years, the Rosslyn BID has steadily expanded its focus on security, culminating in the creation of this position, which merges the efforts of private security with traditional ambassador services. This uniquely integrated strategy—currently unmatched by any other BID in the area—positions the Rosslyn BID as a leader in combining safety, hospitality, and community engagement in one comprehensive program. Carcamo and the team will continue to work closely with Arlington County Police and Fire Departments, property managers, and key community partners like PathForward, an Arlington-based homeless services organization, as well as private security teams, ensuring the seamless coordination of public safety efforts alongside ambassador and service programs.
Since joining the Rosslyn BID in 2011, Carcamo has been instrumental in growing the Ambassador program from four to 10 members and ensuring a clean, safe, and welcoming environment. Carcamo has enhanced community engagement through hospitality, events, and marketing, and led safety initiatives, including the launch of the BID's off-duty police program, the Rosslyn Safety and Security Group, and piloting private security. Recently, he earned CPTED certification from the National Institute of Crime Prevention, further enhancing his expertise in designing safe public spaces.
“We are thrilled to announce Victor Carcamo’s promotion within the Rosslyn BID, recognizing his exceptional service, years of dedication and experience with our organization. Victor has been an integral part of our leadership team, and in his new position, he will play a vital role in further enhancing the experiences and services that make Rosslyn such a special place,” said Mary-Claire Burick, president of the Rosslyn BID. “At the Rosslyn BID, we are proud of our long-standing commitment to promoting from within, a philosophy that allows us to nurture talent, strengthen our community, and maintain the high-quality services our neighborhood deserves. We are confident that Victor’s expertise and passion will help us continue to improve the quality of life for everyone who lives in, works in, and visits Rosslyn.”
“I’m honored to step into this new role at the Rosslyn BID and look forward to continuing to contribute to the vibrant community we’ve built together,” said Victor Carcamo, vice president, operations and public safety. “I’m excited to work with our incredible team to build a premier operations and public safety program that sets the standard for excellence in place management while delivering experiences that enhance the quality of life in Rosslyn.”
"Victor Carcamo is a valued community partner committed to maintaining Arlington as a safe and welcoming place to live, work and visit” said Arlington County Police Chief Charles “Andy” Penn. “His leadership, dedication and vision have been key to enhancing safety and building trust in the Rosslyn community. We look forward to working with Victor in his new role as we continue our longstanding collaboration with the Rosslyn BID to ensure community safety.”
