Driven by a clear mission: helping organizations build the kind of security, governance and trust that enables them to operate with confidence and lead with integrity. I work at the intersection of GRC, cybersecurity compliance, AI governance and privacy; areas where clarity is rare, stakes are high and strong leadership makes all the difference. I specialize in translating complex frameworks into practical, scalable programs that support business growth. My approach blends strategic thinking with operational discipline, ensuring every recommendation is actionable, defensible and aligned with organizational goals.

Throughout my career, I’ve built a foundation rooted in continuous learning, industry-recognized certifications and hands-on experience across governance and security disciplines. I apply a framework-first mindset to every project: build strong controls, empower clear accountability, prepare for audit expectations and create programs designed to evolve with technology and regulatory landscapes. What drives me most is helping organizations shift from reactive compliance to proactive resilience. I care about guiding teams through complexity, strengthening trust with stakeholders and elevating security and governance into true business enablers.

Whether supporting a firm, a corporate environment or strategic partners, I bring perspective, structure and a commitment to meaningful impact.
