What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters professional growth, emphasizes compliance, and values innovative risk management strategies.

I am a seasoned IT Audit Specialist and Risk Analyst with a proven track record in Identity and Access Management (IAM) and Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC). My expertise lies in reducing unauthorized access incidents by 25% and achieving 100% compliance with industry regulations. I leverage my knowledge of regulatory compliance frameworks such as GDPR, PIPEDA, HIPAA, CCPA, FISMA, and SOX to enhance security infrastructure and mitigate risks effectively.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led initiatives that resulted in significant improvements in security and operational efficiency. At the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, I spearheaded user access reviews that decreased security incidents by 30% and improved onboarding time by 20%. My strategic approach to risk management has consistently delivered measurable results, including a 15% reduction in operational costs and a 30% increase in policy adherence across organizations.
