What I'm looking for
I am an Internal Controls & Risk Management professional with over 12 years' experience designing, strengthening, and scaling governance frameworks across global financial services and multinational organizations.
I have proven expertise in SOX/ICFR, IT General Controls, regulatory compliance, and post-merger control integration, delivering results in high-complexity, multi-jurisdiction environments within banking, insurance, and technology sectors.
I partner with senior leadership and Boards to enhance control maturity, mitigate financial and operational risks, and ensure regulatory readiness, having led ERP control design, enterprise risk assessments, and SOX testing lifecycles.
My hands-on delivery includes leading GRC for Microsoft Dynamics 365 implementations, coordinating internal and external audit activities, conducting fraud and special investigations, and building global policies and control frameworks that reduce repeat findings and strengthen compliance.
