@charlesarnold
Cybersecurity GRC analyst building federal risk analysis experience through cybersecurity, legal, and policy research.
What I'm looking for
At Texas A&M University School of Law, I completed a Master of Legal Studies in Cybersecurity Law & Policy with a 3.91 GPA and graduate coursework in cybersecurity risk, incident response, digital forensics, and defense-sector cyber compliance.
As an Independent Intellectual Property & Systems Analyst, I analyze legal, technical, cybersecurity, and policy materials, identify requirements and risks, and organize supporting evidence. I use digital and AI-enabled research tools, then independently validate material conclusions.
At Neiman Marcus, I investigated complex customer, account, transaction, and technology issues while protecting sensitive information and maintaining accurate records. During an audit, I identified a $100,000 refund discrepancy by reviewing transaction information and investigating an irregularity.
I hold an EC-Council Certified Cybersecurity Technician credential and am preparing for CompTIA Security+. My academic and technical foundation includes cybersecurity law and policy, information technology, and mobile web development.
