In this episode of Inclusive Cyber we talk to Angela Díaz, a fraud and risk leader who turned a single day of crisis into a decade-long career in financial crime prevention. We explore how she built her own ladder in an industry that rarely makes space for new voices, from manually canceling fraudulent orders in a startup to designing enterprise-level fraud controls for global banks. Angela shares lessons on hiring for potential instead of perfection, using AI responsibly with human oversight, and leading through mentorship, allyship, and authenticity.

Angela reminds us that you don’t need permission to lead. You just need to own your path and act with purpose.
