Managing Director- Intelligence & Research

Maren has an extensive background in analytical tradecraft, briefing, writing, and critical thinking. She served as an Intelligence Analyst and Supervisory Intelligence Analyst with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in Las Vegas from 2008 to 2016. In the FBI, Maren was recognized as a senior analyst with subject matter expertise in fields such as HUMINT (Human Intelligence) and Strategic Analysis, as well as in threat programs such as International Terrorism, Organized Crime, Human Trafficking, Counterintelligence, and more. Maren provided extensive research and support on national and international-level investigations, as well as hundreds of local cases. During her tenure with the FBI, Maren also participated in drafting several national-level internal policies regarding analytic practices in addition to intelligence product standardization protocols.

In 2016, Maren left the FBI to join the private sector as the Senior Manager of Threat Analysis at MGM Resorts International (MGMRI) in Las Vegas. In this position, Maren was responsible for analyzing and researching various security threats to the MGMRI enterprise on multiple facets including terrorism, crime, and physical security. She presented strategic analysis to top-level executive decision makers on threats locally, nationally, and worldwide in both written and verbal products. Additionally, Maren’s work using statistical analysis on violent crime at all Las Vegas-based MGMRI properties helped illuminate significant crime trends previously misunderstood by both MGMRI officials and the local Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. Maren was also tasked by senior leaders, on several occasions, with providing competent and confidential research in sensitive and multifaceted investigations.

Maren was integral on the night and following weeks of the October 1, 2017 shooting at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino.  Maren lead the MGMRI Corporate Security Watch Center’s response starting moments after the shooting, providing guidance and organization to security officers gathering intelligence from multiple and reactionary sources, as well as acting as the main conduit of information from security officers on the ground to MGMRI management scattered throughout the city. Maren was charged with reviewing, analyzing, and judging information coming in real time, and disseminating accurate and comprehensive intelligence to executives needing to know.

In the aftermath, Maren helped liaise between various MGMRI Corporate departments and the FBI in recovery efforts of victim’s belongings as well as arranging travel and accommodations of victim family members, including those of a fallen officer.

In 2021, Maren joined the Strategic Initiatives Global Partners (SIGP) team to conduct skilled, accurate, and comprehensive research and threat analysis on a wide range of complex targets. She has obtained the CPTED Professional Designation (CPD) certification and has conducted several physical security site surveys utilizing the knowledge and skills learned in the training provided by the National Institute of Criminal Prevention.
