What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead GRC and AI governance programs, drive compliance automation, improve risk posture, and collaborate with technical and executive teams in regulated environments.

I am a dynamic and detail-oriented Cybersecurity and GRC professional with over eight years of experience designing, implementing, and governing enterprise security programs. I have a proven track record in risk management, policy development, compliance assessment, and control testing across regulated environments including FedRAMP, HIPAA, and ISO 27001.

I lead cross-functional initiatives to strengthen security posture and optimize compliance processes, from ATO achievement and OSCAL automation to AI governance mapping against the NIST AI RMF. I am recognized for improving audit readiness, streamlining vulnerability management, and fostering collaboration between technical teams and executives.
