I played a key role in integrating a new tool that resulted in a 70% reduction in operational turnaround times for clients managing over $100 billion in assets. Additionally, through the revitalization of existing security awareness processes, I achieved a 40% improvement in key performance indicators. I am now focused on future-proofing these achievements by leading the development of an AI tool to further enhance our operations.At Citibank, I managed the Global Information Security GRC program, aligning governance initiatives with ISO 27001 standards and regulatory compliance. I was instrumental in ensuring compliance by identifying control gaps in relation to new regulations and ensuring timely remediation, safeguarding the organization against GDPR, CCPA, and other key regulations during significant operational restructuring.My consulting experience includes leading an enterprise-wide Risk Control Self-Assessment (RCSA) platform consolidation across 23 countries in Latin America, effectively streamlining risk management and oversight for Citibank.
