What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead GRC and information security programs where I can own risk management for applications and vendors, drive PCI DSS/SOC 2 readiness, and use NIST-aligned controls and metrics to strengthen security posture.

I’m a Senior GRC and Information Security professional with 8+ years of experience across governance, risk, compliance, third-party risk management, PCI DSS, SOC 2, and security assessments in enterprise and high-growth environments.

In my current role as Lead Information Security Engineer, GRC, I own the application security risk management program, performing security assessments for new and existing SaaS applications and translating technical risk into actionable business decisions aligned to regulatory and industry standards.

I’ve managed governance of approximately 200 enterprise applications, led the organization’s PCI ROC assessment with an external QSA, and coordinated evidence collection across business and technical stakeholders to maintain PCI DSS compliance. I also lead annual private data inventory initiatives supporting NYDFS regulatory compliance.

I build scalable controls and operating mechanisms—developing security and compliance key controls aligned to NIST CSF 2.0, leading exception management, and implementing automated ServiceNow workflows. I define KRIs and KPIs for risk and exceptions, enabling leadership reporting and visibility into program health and risk trends.
