What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply ICT audit and risk skills to improve controls, security, and compliance, with opportunities for technical growth and cross-functional collaboration.

I am an ICT Auditor with experience performing risk-based audits, assessing ICT controls, and delivering practical remediation recommendations to strengthen security, compliance, and business continuity. I have delivered ICT audit programs, documented findings, conducted follow-ups, and applied data analytics for revenue assurance to provide actionable management insights.

My background includes software development training (Java, Spring Boot, Angular), operations and product testing, and hands-on IT support across networking, hardware, POS/ATM systems, and web/app product lifecycles. I am completing CISA certification and hold an MCom in Information Systems Management, combining technical breadth with audit-focused discipline to improve ICT processes and controls.
