IT audit and GRC executive building enterprise risk programs, cyber governance, and SOX controls.
What I'm looking for
I’m an IT Audit, Security & GRC Executive with 20+ years of progressive leadership across Big 4 (Deloitte, PwC, BDO), global insurance, and manufacturing. I build IT audit and risk governance functions from the ground up, led SOX IT control programs across 250+ controls and 16 subsidiary entities, and direct cybersecurity, cloud, AI governance, and data privacy audits at the enterprise level.
Trusted as an advisor to audit committees, risk committees, and CISOs, I translate complex technology risks into board-level insights and drive enterprise risk frameworks aligned to NIST CSF, ISO 27001, and CRI. I combine deep regulatory expertise (SOX, NIST CSF, ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA, PCI, NYDFS, DORA) with hands-on technical proficiency across major platforms, while mentoring teams and enhancing audit quality through continuous monitoring and risk-based analytics.
