At Assent, I standardized automated vendor evaluation pipelines in OneTrust, cutting procurement bottlenecks by 50%. I also developed real-time GRC KPI dashboards to make operational risk metrics clear and actionable for executive leadership.

At Haptik, I designed and audited AI compliance infrastructure aligned with ISO/IEC 42001 and the NIST AI RMF, and conducted threat modeling and code-level security reviews in the secure SDLC. At ZS Associates, I automated control monitoring in Archer GRC and reduced compliance SLA breaches by 50%.

Earlier, I conducted information security audits and third-party risk assessments at Protiviti India Member Firm and Bharti Airtel Limited, and designed ISMS, PIMS, and BCMS documentation at Pricoris LLP. My projects include comparing post-quantum cryptography algorithms and building a database intrusion detection system.
