What I'm looking for

I seek a role focused on GRC, RMF, and NIST-based compliance where I can drive policy, continuous monitoring, and remediation to improve audit readiness.

I am a GRC-focused cybersecurity analyst with over five years of experience across government security operations and enterprise IT governance in U.S. compliance environments.

I specialize in the Risk Management Framework (RMF) and NIST SP 800-53 controls, translating complex regulatory requirements into actionable security guidance and remediation plans.

My background includes continuous monitoring, policy lifecycle management, gap analyses, and remediation tracking that improve audit readiness and operational control alignment.

I hold CompTIA Security+, am pursuing CISA certification, and have led NIST-based control gap assessments and risk register design projects to prioritize enterprise remediation.
