What I'm looking for

I want to lead Business IT and cybersecurity programs—GRC, Zero Trust, and secure digital transformation—connecting policy, people, process, and technology. I’m looking for a team that values security, compliance, and sustainable, cost-efficient delivery.

I bring 11+ years in IT and a track record across strategic, tactical, and operational cybersecurity and Business IT leadership. I’m a pragmatic, creative problem solver focused on achieving goals with sustainability, innovation, security, legal compliance, and cost-efficiency.

My work centers on GRC and security management, building and advising ISMS and governance programs aligned with standards such as ISO 27001/2/5, ISO 27701, NIST CSF, NIST RMF, SOC 2, and frameworks for security and privacy. I’ve led risk and compliance work across GDPR, NIS/NIS2, PSD2, DORA, PCI/DSS, FISMA, and IEC 62443—translating requirements into practical controls.

I also deliver Zero Trust Architecture and IT/OT security through strong project leadership. From security project management to DevSecOps-aligned SDLC work, I focus on policy, security awareness, culture/mindset, and architecture that connects people, process, and technology.

Across my consulting and project roles, I’ve managed stakeholders, vendors, SLAs, procurement, and security operations (including SIEM/SOAR, incident response, and cyber threat management). I’m especially motivated by work that combines governance, architecture, and delivery to support secure, measurable digital transformation.
