Alternate idea.

First start with an immortal IRS agent. Give her a photographic memory. The fact the gov knows about her and just accepts her. And...

Does the IRS promote based on seniority?

TIL the head of the IRS is immortal. And probably a dragon.

heh. There's a funny thought:

A Middle America!

DARPA is head up by dwarves.

Forest service and EPA by elves.

Unfortunately, the House of Representatives has been occupied by the Orcs.

The White House is the secret resting place of The One Ring. However, there's a new One Ring generated every 4 years.

Nah, 4 years is just the longest anyone can go without the ring turning them into Gollum. Of course, some White House occupants *start* as Gollum...

No, DARPA would be full of mildly-insane wizards. (The really crazy wizards would be at Treasury)

Dwarves would run the Department of Energy (coal, oil, uranium...)

DARPA seems the only place to put Oglaf dwarves, if only because saner mad scientists would kill them in the wild...

Your Plucky IRS Agent might find their job is made tougher by the hero of The Utterly Uninteresting and Unadventurous Tales of Fred, the Vampire Accountant, by Drew Hayes. The first one sounds like a typical "introduced to the supernatural" story, but by the sequel Fred has apparently tried to get back into his old routine.

"Myths and legends, as it turns out, are not so great at taking appropriate deductions and keeping their receipts, and Fred is more than happy to return to a life others view as woefully dull, expanding his accounting business to cater to various monsters and their respective financial needs."

I haven't read either yet, but I've got the first one on order for my library and I'm looking forward to it. I enjoyed Hayes' Pears And Perils, and the chapter or two I've read of NPCs was fun enough.
