Krystal Mattich
Senior Director, Data & Business Systems
San Diego, California
My Role
I lead Brain Corp’s global security and privacy programs, ensuring that our technologies are designed, scaled, and deployed in a way that protects data and builds trust with our customers.
What I love most about my role
I love partnering with our internal technologists and applying my expertise to help bring products to market that can scale quickly, while staying compliant. It’s rewarding to see innovation move fast, without compromising security while maintaining customer trust.
How I define success
For me, success is being proud of the value I deliver, whether that’s to customers, colleagues, or friends. If I can leverage my expertise and experience to generate meaningful impact: that's success!
The best piece of business advice I ever received was
The earlier you learn to embrace and adapt to change, the more successful you’ll be. Change is constant, and learning to lean into it makes all the difference.
What would I tell my younger self
Trust your inner voice sooner. I used to care too much about what others thought, and it took time to learn that trusting my instincts was not only okay, but necessary. That self-trust is what allows you to grow with confidence.
What 2B Bolder mean to me
To me, being bolder is about leaning into opportunities that stretch you, trusting yourself even when the path feels uncertain, and using your skills to clear the way for others coming up behind you.
Years of Experience
I bring more than 20 years of experience to the field.
I recommend you focus on developing these 3 skills to succeed in a role like mine
The three skills I value most are:
Focusing on bringing teams together and aligning strategies so we can work more efficiently and effectively.
Leading system transformations that not only improve performance but also set the foundation for scalable growth.
Prioritizing protecting data and ensuring compliance in a way that builds trust and supports long-term success.
