Systems don't fail randomly. They fail when governance is an afterthought.

I'm a governance analyst with a governance first mindset, building structure into environments where clarity, control, and compliance matter. I work at the intersection of IT operations, cybersecurity frameworks, and business strategy, all while helping tech organizations turn informal practices into sustainable, auditable processes.

With a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and an MBA (Master of Business Administration) in IT Management, I’ve led initiatives across change management, risk assessments, SOP design, and audit readiness. I focus on making compliance practical, not performative—bridging the gap between policy and execution.

Outside the technical space, I study neuroscience, cognitive performance, and the psychology of human-computer interaction. I’m driven by curiosity, grounded in systems thinking, and powered by good coffee, great storytelling, and the occasional anime marathon.

I write about IT governance, process transformation, and career growth in GRC.
