What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I lead cybersecurity, risk or TPRM programs in collaborative, security-first organizations, driving certification, maturity, and operational resilience.

I am a senior cybersecurity expert with over 10 years of national and international experience in information system security, specializing in auditing, risk assessment, business continuity, physical security, human safety, and regulatory compliance. I hold multiple certifications including CISM, ISO 27001 Senior Lead Implementer/Auditor, ISO 22301 Lead Implementer, ISO 27005 Risk Manager, CCSK, and Azure fundamentals, and I combine hands-on operational leadership with governance and project management experience.

My recent work includes Third Party Risk Management, automated cyber monitoring, centralized TPRM dashboards, phishing program launches, and vendor assessments, as well as designing audit strategies, maturity assessments, EBIOS-based risk analyses, SOC service delivery management, and achieving ISO 27001 certification for major sites. I deliver consultant training, commercial enablement materials, and operational improvements to strengthen clients' security posture and resilience.
