Listen Later

In this episode of CyberMAYnia, I sit down with Tracy Hickey, a cybersecurity leader who took an unconventional path from managing a Zappos warehouse to leading AWS security initiatives that drive billions in revenue. Tracy shares how she built her career, the lessons she learned along the way, and why personal branding and authenticity are crucial for success in tech.

We dive into:

  • The unexpected career path that led Tracy from logistics to securing cloud environments
  • How cybersecurity can drive business growth (and why execs need to hear this)
  • The importance of personal branding in a world full of technical talent
  • Lessons from AWS and beyond on leadership, resilience, and taking risks

Tracy’s story is a must-listen for anyone looking to break into cybersecurity, pivot their career, or simply get inspired by someone who refused to take the traditional path.
