You enjoy bringing structure to ambiguity and building programs that make organizations more resilient. You’re comfortable navigating complex technical environments, driving alignment across teams, and ensuring that when things go wrong, everyone knows what to do and how to recover. You’re excited by the challenge of turning business continuity from a compliance checkbox into a business enabler.

- Evolve program maturity metrics to provide insight into enterprise resilience risks and recovery capabilities.
- Integrate BCDR with Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) and Third-Party Risk programs to ensure alignment with top enterprise risks.
