WORK HISTORY
Senior Risk Analyst @Arcova, formerly MorganFranklin Cyber Team
In my role as a Senior Risk Analyst, I lead comprehensive cybersecurity and third-party risk management initiatives across complex environments, driving risk identification, assessment, and mitigation strategies aligned with industry frameworks such as NIST CSF, ISO, and SOC 2. I partner with internal stakeholders and external vendors to strengthen security posture, ensure regulatory compliance, and support informed risk-based decision-making.I also serve as a project lead across multiple concurrent engagements, managing timelines, deliverables, and stakeholder communications to ensure the successful execution of risk assessments and remediation programs. I coordinate cross-functional teams, prioritize competing initiatives, and drive accountability to meet critical deadlines while maintaining alignment with business objectives.Through my work, I oversee the full risk lifecycle, from due diligence and control validation to remediation tracking and continuous monitoring. Additionally, I contribute to process optimization, training initiatives, and implementation of GRC tools to enhance visibility, efficiency, and overall program effectiveness. Recognized for delivering high-quality assessments at scale while improving efficiency and strengthening organizational risk posture.Arcova\'s story is one of intentional evolatio and conitnuous advancement. Founded in 2018 as part of Vaco Enterprises, the firm quickly earned a reputation for solving complex cybersecurity and AI challenges with clarity, confidence, and practitioner-led expertise. In early 2025, the organization separated from Vaco Enterprises to operate independently as MorganFranklin Cyber while transforming its vision, capabilities, and strategic direction. In 2026, we reintroduced ourselves as Arcova: a brand that reflects our commitment to shaping what\'s next through end-to-endless partnership, continuous innovation, and a dedication to turning complexity into clarity and vision into value.
