What I'm looking for
I work where information security governance, cyber resilience, and automation meet.
My career started in IT support and software development, which gave me a practical understanding of users, applications, databases, infrastructure, and the operational consequences of security decisions. Today, I apply that background across GRC and hands-on security operations.
My experience includes security policies and processes, cyber and third-party risk, SOC 2/SOC 3 and internal audits, framework assessments (ISO/IEC 27001, CIS Controls, AICPA Trust Services Criteria), vulnerability management, security awareness, incident response, access governance, SIEM, DLP, endpoint security, and Microsoft 365 security.
I am especially motivated by turning complex or manual activities into clear, measurable, and sustainable processes. This approach has contributed to:
- Reducing vulnerabilities by at least 45%
- Shortening the access review cycle from one month to one week
- Increasing Microsoft Secure Score by 14% in the first month
- Improving phishing reporting by 60%
I have led two security teams simultaneously, translating regulatory and technical requirements into action plans and communicating with executives, auditors, business areas, suppliers, and international customers.
Core areas: GRC | SOC 2 | ISO/IEC 27001 | Third-Party Risk | Cyber Risk | Vulnerability Management | Incident Response | IAM | Security Awareness | Security Automation
