Visa

In this enterprise leadership role, Mariam oversees the strategic direction of Visa’s global AdTech ecosystem and the governance frameworks that support Marketing Data and AI innovation across the company. She works closely with Visa’s Data and Privacy Offices to ensure that all marketing technologies, data practices, and AI‑related use cases meet rigorous standards of compliance, security, and operational excellence.

Mariam leads a global portfolio responsible for unifying AdTech platforms, strengthening data stewardship, and advancing the governance models that enable Visa’s marketing organization to operate with agility, transparency, and trust.

Before stepping into her current role, Mariam played a central part in transforming Visa’s global marketing technology capabilities, including key platform modernization initiatives and the integration of new third‑party solutions.
