About

Professional summary

I am a senior management strategist with more than 30 years of leadership experience across banking, security, and real estate. I specialize in operational excellence, IT governance, business development, and building scalable commercial operations.

I have led multimillion-dollar efficiency initiatives, revenue-growth programs, strategic sourcing, public procurement, and supplier negotiations. My work combines executive strategy with disciplined execution, with a strong focus on measurable financial and operational outcomes.

I bring deep experience in IT governance, ITIL service management, information security, business continuity planning, disaster recovery planning, PMO leadership, and digital transformation. I have supported enterprise resilience programs and ISO 27001 certification efforts in financial institutions.

I am experienced in process reengineering, P&L budgeting, cost optimization, ISO 9001 and ISO 37001 compliance, and high-performance audit management. I have helped organizations achieve zero nonconformities in external quality and anti-bribery audits.

As a people and change leader, I have managed workforce initiatives involving up to 12,000 employees, organizational training, talent retention, and service-level improvement. I also apply AI solutions, workflow automation, prompt engineering, and data-driven decision-making to improve business performance.

I currently lead real estate expansion as a founder and CEO while also managing sales, innovation, and operations for a security services organization. I am particularly effective in high-impact negotiations, public-sector tenders, commercial portfolio development, and complex operational transformation.
