What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead SOX ITGC control testing and documentation, own IT risk assessment and remediation tracking, and improve control effectiveness with automation—while partnering with auditors, IT, and compliance to keep systems audit-ready.

I’m an IT internal controls professional with 15+ years across financial services, focused on SOX IT General Controls, control design, IT risk assessment, and remediation. I bring a practical, audit-ready approach that strengthens financial-reporting system integrity.

At GE Capital, I contributed SOX 302/404 control testing and validation for a $10B portfolio, partnering with IT and compliance teams to improve control effectiveness. I also directed remediation testing and coordinated evidence for external auditors (Deloitte & Touche) during a federally mandated compliance program.

I’m known for driving measurable results through automation and disciplined documentation. I reduced field-level errors 17% using VBA-based reconciliation automation, and supported root-cause remediation work that reduced operational losses 14%.

Today, I’m building on that foundation with hands-on ITGC workpapers and automation end-to-end (Python, JavaScript, Zapier, Notion), with human-in-the-loop validation to keep controls reliable. I’m also pursuing CISA and have completed IT Audit Fundamentals (20 CPE) and IT Auditing and GRC Bootcamp (5 CPE).
