Securing Enterprise Identity & Risk at Scale

With over a decade protecting one of the world's most complex enterprise environments, I've built deep expertise across two disciplines that don't often come together: Identity & Access Management and Cyber Risk Management. I hold five active security certifications — CISSP, CISM, CISA, CRISC, and CIPT.
