At Lawson Products, I led enterprise cybersecurity, IT audit readiness, IAM, MSSP oversight, and M&A integration for a publicly traded organization growing through acquisition. I reduced audit deficiencies by more than 20%, implemented an MSSP and integrated SIEM and security tools, and strengthened identity governance with scalable technologies including Okta.

Earlier, I delivered SAP security and GRC consulting for EY, Accenture, and Wipro, supporting clients including OpenText, Dell EMC, Ralph Lauren, and the Defense Logistics Agency. I translate technology, audit, and risk requirements into practical controls, executive reporting, and scalable operational improvements.
