What I'm looking for

I seek senior roles where I can lead security architecture, vendor risk, and GRC programs in collaborative, growth-focused organizations driving enterprise resilience and compliance.

I am a results-driven cybersecurity leader with over 10 years of experience building and leading enterprise security programs, architecture, and risk management functions across global organizations.

At FactSet I designed and automated a Global Third-Party Vendor Risk Management program, led SOC 2 Type 2 attestation for a $100M core business, implemented collective control frameworks (CIS Top 20, NIST 800-53, NIST CSF, ISO 27001) and introduced AI-driven vendor assessments and AI risk management practices.

I lead cross-functional teams and deliver security transformation initiatives including ISO 27001 and SOC 2 readiness, security awareness programs, automated unified risk register workflows, and vendor/tool onboarding while partnering with auditors and vendors to strengthen enterprise resilience.
