What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative data governance or risk-compliance role where I can drive data accuracy, automate controls, support SOX/ITGC audits, and partner cross-functionally to strengthen data trust for BI and AI initiatives.

I am a strategic and detail-oriented data governance and risk compliance professional with 3+ years of experience enabling enterprise-wide data accuracy, audit readiness, and regulatory alignment. I focus on user access reviews, control remediation, and automating evidence collection to reduce cycle times and improve reliability.

I have led full lifecycles of user access reviews and access control audits, partnered cross-functionally with IT, security, audit, and procurement, and supported SOX/ITGC and HIPAA audit requirements—achieving faster review cycles and audit-ready documentation with no major findings.

My background includes vendor and third-party risk assessments, policy and training development, RBAC and SoD reviews, and hands-on experience with GRC platforms and enterprise systems. I am committed to making enterprise data more trustworthy and actionable for business intelligence and AI initiatives.
