What I'm looking for

I'm looking to help organizations strengthen IT controls, security compliance, audit readiness, and risk management while leading collaborative teams through complex regulatory and security challenges.

I'm currently leading Governance, Risk and Compliance work at Concentrix in Berlin, where I drive IT and contractual compliance, control testing, fraud prevention, risk reporting, and audit readiness.

Previously at HSBC, I supported SOX IT internal audit reviews, evidence gathering, compliance assessments, control-owner guidance, and financial-reporting risk and control documentation.

Across Lint Technologies and Motormata, I've delivered ITGC, ELC, ITAC, ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, NIST, third-party risk, disaster recovery, and business continuity engagements for financial-services clients. I bring more than eight years of experience helping organizations identify control gaps, strengthen security programs, and manage risk.
