Experience
Enterprise Risk Manager
Oct 2023 — Present · Fort Collins, CO, US
I lead the Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) program, driving a strategic and proactive approach to identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks across the organization. With a focus on risk intelligence and resilience, I oversee risk register management, ensuring risks are continuously monitored, emerging threats are evaluated, and risk management tools evolve to keep pace with an ever-changing landscape.I work closely with departments to identify and treat risks that impact their strategic objectives, helping them integrate risk awareness into their decision-making processes. Acting as a consultant and advisor, I provide guidance on how departments can address deficiencies, strengthen controls, and enhance overall risk resilience.My role extends to contract reviews, where I assess risk exposures and develop strategies to protect the organization while enabling business objectives. I collaborate with internal audit and compliance teams, ensuring alignment with regulatory requirements, governance frameworks, and industry best practices.I facilitate risk assessments and workshops, engaging cross-functional teams to improve risk identification, strengthen internal controls, and embed a risk-conscious culture into daily operations. By analyzing trends, industry developments, and internal risk indicators, I provide leadership with actionable insights to navigate uncertainty, mitigate exposures, and support long-term strategic goals.Through ongoing education, collaboration, and process improvements, I help foster a culture of accountability, risk ownership, and continuous improvement, ensuring that risk management is not just a function, but a strategic enabler of organizational success.
