Our Director of Risk, Marcus Vinson, has been named one of Taktile's Top Voices in Risk 2025 in the Leadership category, and we couldn't be more proud.
This recognition spotlights exactly what we see from Marcus every day: leadership that transforms risk management from a roadblock into a strategic advantage. With over ten years of experience, Marcus doesn't just manage risk, he builds the teams and frameworks that make smart risk decisions possible.
Before joining Lithic, Marcus was Chime's first Fraud Manager, where he spent six years scaling risk, fraud, and dispute systems from the ground up. Prior to that, he coordinated complex financial crimes investigations for US Treasury and Coast Guard Investigative Service, specializing in digital forensics and data analysis.
At Lithic, Marcus brings that same methodical, team-first approach to everything we build. The payments infrastructure our customers depend on is stronger because of leaders like him.
Taktile's Top Voices recognition celebrates individuals who are "redefining what risk can enable, not just control." That statement describes Marcus perfectly, always focused on what's possible, not just what's protected.
Congratulations, Marcus!
