What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead enterprise IAM and CIAM strategy, platform migrations, and implementation teams while partnering with business leaders, architects, vendors, and executives.

I'm leading customer identity and access management at Canada Life, migrating applications to a central IAM platform and designing solutions with enterprise architects.

At Royal Bank of Canada, I drove CIAM strategy, roadmaps, Okta onboarding, proofs of concept, and migration planning from PingFed to the enterprise CIAM platform. I also led “Simplifying Identity” at RBC Catalyst 2024 and mentored cross-functional teams on CIAM and Okta.

At Canadian Pacific Rail, I served as the point of contact for employee identity management development and support, partnering with stakeholders, auditors, vendors, and integration teams. I implemented IAM automation that saved $130,000 annually and automated user termination processes.

Across Nagarro, Mahindra Satyam, Mphasis, IBM, and Wipro, I've delivered IAM implementations, migrations, onboarding automation, role modeling, vendor evaluations, and security consulting across telecom, insurance, financial services, transportation, and government.
