Founder and CEO
Lolly Andreoli is Founder and CEO of Infected Industries. She has been building with computers since she was young, and she still works by the same rule: learn the system in front of you, then put it to work.
In 1999 she built a computer alongside her father. In 2002, a visit to an Apple retail store in California set the course. The employees acknowledged her and let her ask questions. Circuit City had been a different experience entirely.
She began in music as a singer, songwriter, and producer. She then became one of the first women to stream games on Justin.tv, before the platform became Twitch, and earned recognition as an award-winning StarCraft II streamer. Each broadcast was a live production: the show, the audience, and a room that could change in a minute. She still leads with those skills.
Seven years at Apple followed, in customer support and technical work, and the job took her from Florida to New Jersey, New York City, and Oregon. She then moved into information security for a well-known American footwear company.
She relocated to Las Vegas to help a Fortune 500 company build its cybersecurity program. That work included more than 300 custom automations, in-house AI, and a central role when the company faced a cyber breach, all while studying business at the University of Alabama online.
She is a self-taught AI and automation researcher, pushing what the technology can do inside a working security operation. She is also an avid gamer, a photographer, a drone pilot, and a car enthusiast.
