What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead security strategy and enterprise risk integration, building resilient security capabilities that support business growth with strong governance, risk awareness, and security embedded in operational and transformation decisions.

I’m a Cybersecurity Executive CISO focused on aligning cybersecurity with business priorities through enterprise risk management and security transformation. I lead global security strategy in multinational environments, embedding governance, operational security, and risk management into day-to-day and transformation decisions.

Across distributed teams and multiple regions, I build resilient security capabilities through pragmatic execution—strengthening security posture, incident readiness, and compliance with frameworks like ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and GDPR. I’m known for pairing strategic thinking with pragmatic delivery that supports business growth without compromising governance or risk awareness.
