About Lauren Parks Watts
I’m a self-motivated and highly organized Associate Director with a decade of experience spanning external audit and cybersecurity-focused internal audit. I began my career in external audit leading the issuance of SOC reports and IT assurance engagements that helped clients strengthen their control environments and meet regulatory expectations.More recently, I’ve been immersed in cybersecurity and internal audit, where I lead risk-based assessments, advise on control design, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to enhance organizational resilience. I thrive on planning with precision and executing with purpose—whether it’s navigating complex IT landscapes or guiding stakeholders through audit findings and remediation strategies.I’m passionate about continuous improvement, mentoring others, and building trusted relationships across the business. I bring energy, structure, and a strategic mindset to every challenge I take on.
