Скачать или смотреть From UF Law to Head of Technology Risk at TD: Melanie Hapner

In this episode of ChompCast, the team sits down with Melanie Hapner, Head of Technology Risk Governance at TD, for a conversation about the behind-the-scenes roles that keep big companies running.

Melanie shares what her job actually looks like day to day, how major organizations think about decision-making and accountability, and why communication and leadership matter just as much as technical skills. She talks about building trust, managing teams, and navigating responsibility in high-impact environments — in ways that apply far beyond banking or tech.

A licensed attorney, adjunct law professor at the University of Florida, and a 40 Under 40 inductee, Melanie also reflects on her career path from UF Law to executive leadership and offers advice for students and young professionals who want meaningful, stable careers but don’t necessarily know what that path looks like yet. This episode is about learning how work really happens behind the scenes — and how to find your place in it.
