Also, gained significant experience working with and reporting to top executives and audit committees, while serving as the lead co-sourcing executive for multiple US and global companies in Internal Audit (IA), enterprise risk and trust/compliance management, process improvement and transformation, SOX compliance and external audit. I brought practical experience from consulting, assurance, and risk management; digital/agile; technology and cyber risk; strategic; and regulatory perspectives. I helped clients improve their operations and resource efficiency, while leveraging the latest technology, data and agile methods to stay relevant and responsive to the risks that matter (upside, outside, and downside risks). Examples of results achieved for internal audit and ERM: • IA Function optimization – 25% cost reduction with better coverage of the risks that matter • Move from ‘policing’ to ‘making business better’ • Agile risk-based auditing • Operationalizing ERM (including facilitating scenario, pre-mortem, design-think working sessions) Experiences with EY included standing up, transforming and leading internal audit, strategic ERM programs, and ICFR/SOX for public and private companies, initial public offerings (IPO), and government entities. Throughout, I built and led high-performing teams, focusing on purpose and outcomes. Show less
