Currently at EY GDS, I lead global buy-side and sell-side cybersecurity assessments—evaluating target organizations against NIST CSF and EY’s proprietary frameworks.From surface and dark web investigations to CIS benchmark design and compliance advisory, I translate complex cyber risks into actionable insights for deal teams and senior stakeholders.My background spans SOC operations, application security, and secure architecture design, with hands-on exposure to tools like Splunk, NetWitness, DLP, IRM, and WAFs. I bring a balance of technical depth, business alignment, and communication skills—focused on delivering clarity in high-stakes environments.Let’s connect if you’re working at the intersection of cybersecurity, risk, and business strategy.
