About

Dynamic and accomplished leader with a proven track record of delivering multi-million-dollar programs on time and on budget in highly regulated and controlled environments. By fusing deep product, financial, and organizational expertise with strong technology risk management, I drive transformative initiatives that achieve strategic objectives, optimize total cost of ownership (TCO), and fortify risk and control frameworks. Recognized as a diplomatic yet decisive change agent, I build trust and alignment across diverse global stakeholders—executives, regulators, technologists, and operations teams worldwide. I excel at leading dispersed, multicultural teams, forging consensus amid conflicting priorities, and delivering regulatory compliance programs that stand up to the strictest scrutiny. A technology-savvy innovator passionate about AI, automation, cloud adoption, and emerging technologies, I embed robust AI governance, AI risk management, and technology controls from day one balancing innovation with operational resilience and regulatory expectations. My risk oversight spans core information security domains such as incident response, IAM/PAM, cloud security, third-party risk, secure development practices, threat and vulnerability management, and cyber resilience, grounded in frameworks including NIST CSF, NIST SP 800-53, ISO 27001, and Basel-aligned ORM practices. Known for clear, high-impact communication and strong cross-cultural sensitivity, I translate complex technical and regulatory topics into actionable insights and serve as a trusted advisor to leadership on the evolving cybersecurity, AI, and technology risk landscape. Core areas of impact: Multi-million-dollar global program & portfolio leadership Information Security Risk Management (Second Line of Defense) Enterprise & Operational Risk Management (ERM / ORM) AI Governance, Compliance & AI Risk Management Cybersecurity & technology risk oversight Cloud adoption & automation transformation Regulatory compliance, audit & committee engagement Risk & controls framework design and implementation Risk appetite, KRIs, RCSAs & findings management TCO optimization and global team leadership Research on AI risk management and the human element in AI risk
