Hello & welcome! 

I am a technology enthusiast and optimist dedicated to making technology and data more secure and resilient. I am an Assistant Director in a global consulting firm's Technology Risk Management practice, helping member firms comply with emerging technology, cybersecurity, data, and regulatory requirements. I support these member firms through technical reviews, consultations, and assessments to enhance effective and efficient technology governance and oversight. Additionally, I contribute to global AI governance, risk, and control initiatives to ensure that AI products, services, and processes align with strategic technology risk management goals.

I am in the fourth year of my doctoral studies at a leading research university specializing in AI and information security. My professional experience includes technology and cybersecurity roles in public and private sectors. I have also served as an adjunct instructor and lecturer at a top-ten university in the USA, sharing my knowledge with the next generation of professionals.

I am passionate about continuous learning in cybersecurity and IT, enhancing my expertise through advanced degrees, professional certifications, and speaking engagements worldwide. I hold an MBA with a concentration in MIS and multiple certifications, including CISSP, CISM, CISA, CDPSE, and SAFe 5 Agilist.

My research focuses on emerging technologies, AI risk management, information security controls, technology compliance, and data protection. I welcome opportunities for research, speaking engagements, and other collaboration efforts.
