Close Up
  • What I Do

    I lead a team responsible for IT Security Risk Management and that includes oversight of Internal Audits, SOX Compliance, Data Governance, CPRA, and Data Privacy for my organization.

  • Why Engineering?

    Lucrative career that allows me to tap into the objective side of my mind.

  • School Days

    I have a Masters of Science in Information Systems and I am also a Certified Scrum Master.

  • My Day At Work

    People Management, Security & Risk Analysis, Program Management, Requirements Analysis, Producing Design Specifications, Executive Communications and Testing Production Implementations.

  • Best Part

    Keeping abreast of the latest technology and interacting with people everyday.

  • Proud Moments

    Leading others well.

  • Challenges

    Playing referee between teams. It happens often, there are many personality conflicts so to get around this I call meetings/sit downs so we can hash out the root cause issues.

  • My Family

    They are brilliant and they fostered the computer girl in me.

  • Dreams and Goals

    To be an executive leader.

  • Inspiration

    My family and my classmates.

  • Want to be an Engineer?

    You should be an engineer because it's a lucrative field where you can not only tap into the objective side of your brain but also the affective side. Women are needed in this field. And we need diversity.

  • Hobbies

    I am a long distanced runner and I love to hike.
