@maryroberts
I turn cyber risk and cloud complexity into resilient, high-performance enterprises.
What I'm looking for
I've led cybersecurity, cloud, and infrastructure transformation at a confidential global investment firm and Nike, restoring global operations in under 24 hours during the July 2024 CrowdStrike outage and reducing Nike's cloud spend from $675M to $200M.
As an enterprise CISO and infrastructure executive, I build security, GRC, AI governance, incident management, business continuity, and FinOps capabilities that make risk visible and technology accountable. I recovered $2M in payment fraud, cut an AWS run rate from $10M to $2M, unified six acquired environments, and supported acquisition and divestiture readiness.
My work spans digital forensics, crisis command, Zero Trust, cloud security, M&A integration, and global engineering leadership across commercial and government environments.
