Privacy, security, and AI governance leader driving compliance and scalable programs.
What I'm looking for
I am a privacy, security, and AI governance professional with deep experience building programs across highly regulated and high-growth environments. I translate regulatory requirements into technical execution to accelerate decision-making and enable revenue.
I have led privacy and AI governance at publicly traded fintech and real estate platforms and established privacy engineering and FedRAMP programs for life sciences and cloud products. My work includes contributions to NIST 800-53 and managing FedRAMP, HIPAA, GLBA, GDPR, CCPA, and 21 CFR Part 11 compliance efforts.
I partner closely with engineering, product, legal, and data science teams to embed privacy-by-design, model risk management, and algorithmic fairness into development lifecycles, using automation and tools like OneTrust and BigID to scale controls and monitoring.
My achievements include driving FedRAMP Moderate authorization that unlocked federal contracts, improving compliance rates to 99% across multiple business units, and defining AI governance for generative products to ensure regulatory alignment and organizational trust.
