About
A visionary strategist with a deep-rooted background in the IT landscape, I help shape organizations' technological trajectory. Through my collaborations with Fortune 100 companies, I developed my expertise in leading transformational initiatives, planning robust infrastructure, and implementing cutting-edge solutions. As a steward of digital transformations, I place an emphasis on cybersecurity, ensuring our digital architectures are protected and drive growth
Starting my journey hands-on as a Developer, I garnered a deep-rooted comprehension of technology and problem-solving that continues to inform and shape my executive leadership perspective. I quickly progressed through various technical and management roles, focusing on infrastructure services delivery and cybersecurity. These experiences cultivated my expertise in managing complexity, risk, and change at scale.
Today, as the Chief Information Security Officer & Chief Customer Officer at a forward-thinking IT solution and technology company, my responsibilities span two critical domains - strategy & growth and information security. My dual role allows me to maintain a customer-centric lens while still focusing on the imperative aspects of security, data protection, risk mitigation, and regulatory compliance.
In every role and every project, my goal remains consistent: to drive innovation, inspire teams, and help organizations navigate the evolving digital landscape securely and effectively.
