About
I’m a GRC and IT Security leader with 15+ years of experience helping SaaS, fintech, healthcare, and global enterprise clients build scalable security and compliance programs.
At A3INFOSEC, I help fast-growing companies align security with business goals—reducing audit fatigue, enabling automation, and managing real risk.
I’ve delivered programs that pass audits, but more importantly, I build frameworks that support long-term operational maturity, cross-functional alignment, and regulatory resilience.
