What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead enterprise cyber security reporting and data strategy—building trustworthy executive ecosystems with Power BI and AI automation to reduce risk exposure, improve decision velocity, and align stakeholders across global teams.

I’m a senior leader with 25+ years driving cyber security operations, enterprise data strategy, and performance transformation across complex global organizations. I’m known for building executive reporting ecosystems that translate complex risk and operational data into clear business insight for leadership and board audiences.

I established and scaled a metrics-driven operating model, including a scalable Power BI reporting ecosystem used across operational, executive, and board-level audiences. By applying AI and intelligent automation, I’ve reduced manual reporting effort, improved accuracy, and increased scalability—while strengthening data trust through governance discipline and validation controls.

Across teams, I’ve influenced enterprise data strategy and platform adoption across 40+ teams by aligning security, IT, and data stakeholders around shared standards and outcomes. My work includes an Authoritative Asset Baseline to validate security coverage and improve enterprise risk visibility, alongside enterprise vulnerability analysis and executive reporting for the organization’s most critical systems.
