Ashley Walker

I am an experienced Internal Audit professional with over 6 years of expertise in IT governance, risk management, and compliance (GRC). My career has been dedicated to enhancing operational efficiency through meticulous planning and execution of SOX testing, as well as assessing ITGC domains. I excel in collaborating with cross-functional teams and managing regulatory audits, ensuring that organizations not only meet compliance standards but also drive continuous improvement.

At FedEx, I lead risk assessments and audits, proactively identifying and mitigating compliance risks. My role involves creating and maintaining a risk register, conducting SOC 2 and PCI-DSS gap analyses, and ensuring alignment of internal policies with industry best practices. I have a proven track record of building compliance-aware business units and providing technical advice to enhance security controls, which has been instrumental in my success in the field.

My previous experience as an IT Auditor at Salesforce further solidified my skills in developing risk-based audit plans and collaborating with cross-functional teams to improve internal controls. I am passionate about leveraging my analytical thinking and problem-solving skills to foster a culture of compliance and security within organizations.
