Unlike Guskiewicz, who had spent more than two decades at UNC before being named chancellor, Roberts' background is more of a mix of public and private sector roles.
He is the founder and managing partner of a Raleigh-based private investment firm and is also a member of the UNC System Board of Governors and chair of its budget committee.
