CISSP-certified GRC and cybersecurity risk management specialist.
What I'm looking for
I am a CISSP-certified information security and risk management specialist with over seven years of experience bridging technical cybersecurity operations and Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC). I have driven risk assessments across healthcare, financial services, and technology, implemented Continuous Controls Monitoring (CCM), led incident response, and administered risk workflows using tools like LogicGate.
I have established IT risk and compliance functions, authored risk acceptances, managed vendor risk assessments, and collaborated with technical and business stakeholders to remediate vulnerabilities and strengthen security posture using frameworks such as HITRUST, NIST 800-53/CSF, and ISO 27001. I bring practical hands-on experience with SIEM, vulnerability scanning, cloud security (AWS, Azure), and forensic tools to deliver measurable risk reduction.
