Experience An Expert
With over a decade of experience in IT security, risk management, and cybersecurity governance, I specialize in driving large-scale, end-to-end infrastructure, payment processing, and security compliance initiatives. During my tenure at Fiserv, a global leader in financial technology, I supported the entire infrastructure lifecycle for payment processing, from generating PCI-compliant card numbers to managing end-of-cycle reporting and analytics for card and payment transactions. My role involved working directly with banking clients worldwide, supporting systems that process billions of transactions annually, and contributing to Fiserv’s multi-billion-dollar revenue streams.
In addition to my work at Fiserv, I bring a wealth of experience in program management, having led significant initiatives for Coca-Cola and consulting for corporations such as Dell, Home Depot, and Rockwell Automation. I have successfully managed federal and corporate audits, led compliance with various regulatory frameworks such as FedRAMP, CMMC, and supported numerous security and compliance initiatives from a federal and corporate perspective.
Director of IT Security & Compliance
As a strategic representative of the division CISO, I collaborated with executive and technical leadership for the steering committee by managing and executing the cybersecurity portfolio strategy for Global Business Solutions. Key responsibilities are to develop innovative programs with an annual budget of $90-120 million. This includes managing capital expenditures and operational planning throughout the program’s lifecycle, demonstrating my ability to manage resources effectively.
