What I'm looking for

I seek a GRC or cybersecurity role where I can apply IT management experience, strengthen compliance programs, lead risk assessments, and support a collaborative, mission-focused team with opportunities for professional growth.

I am a seasoned IT manager with over 10 years of experience supporting mission-critical environments, now focused on Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) in cybersecurity. I have led teams, managed complex IT infrastructures, implemented security controls (firewalls, IDS/IPS, endpoint protection), administered Active Directory for 400+ users, and delivered measurable results such as 60% reduced downtime and 30% cost savings.

I am expanding expertise in NIST, ISO 27001, CIS Controls and hold certifications including Azure Fundamentals and Google Cybersecurity. I bring practical experience in risk assessment, IT auditing, incident response, business continuity, and regulatory compliance, and I am motivated to contribute as a GRC Analyst who bridges technical operations and security governance.
