Now, more than ever, it’s important for businesses to move beyond just building up repetitive revenues from services or products. In order to find long-term success, businesses need constant building and renewal/revision to their process related to the core business function or development/deployment of new products or services as well as growth and changes to the client base. That means having compliance and risk leaders who know how to remediate issues and create risk management/compliance frameworks and privacy/data protection programs that measure, monitor, and mitigate problems when gaps in adherence to industry regulations occur.An industry-recognized expert in implementing operational and technology risk controls, developing cutting-edge technology solutions in risk, compliance, and data protection domains, and executing operational compliance programs at scale, I help my companies achieve regulatory compliance in areas of data privacy, bank outsourcing, data localization, and international data transfers with 100+ regulators.Notable results:+ Currently helming Citigroup's Centralized Cross-Border Data Transfer (CBDT) function and Privacy Operations Program, I led a global organization with 70-member teams to optimize and align international data transfers with the regulatory demands of 95+ country jurisdictions.+ After executing the global transformation of CBDC and privacy operations, we not only streamlined processes and minimized operational complexities, but also establishing new industry benchmark in the process.+ Critical to attaining operational and process efficiencies, I refined CBDC and privacy workflows enhancing procedures, and driving implementation of robust privacy standards. We also designed approaches to create simple, globally common, lean, and digitally enabled bank outsourcing processes for 70+ franchises.+ To secure enterprise-wide compliance with privacy regulations, including GDPR and Schrems II, I conducted strategic process reviews, drove innovation, integrated cutting-edge technology solutions (CBAT, PIA), and led rigorous remediation initiatives.With a collaborative leadership style, I’m a people motivator, listener, and effective communicator who builds teams that are committed to excellence. In the end, effective communications, trust-based relationships, and a vision for success are key to affecting positive change and contributing value to an organization.I’m active on LinkedIn and would enjoy connecting with you.
