Security · AI · Enterprise delivery

From securing a Fortune 50 to building its AI.

I work in enterprise AI and cybersecurity at Procter & Gamble. I connect business needs with emerging technology, manage startup relationships and build tools for vendor research and governance. My background spans application security, third-party risk and Python automation.

01 / The story

I learned the enterprise, automated the work and moved into AI.

01 / The foundation

Learn the enterprise.

I started at P&G in application security and third-party risk. I worked with application owners and vendors on assessments, governance and remediation.

02 / The multiplier

Remove the manual work.

I taught myself Python and used it to reduce repetitive security work. I automated assessment preparation and vulnerability reporting, then helped coordinate access cleanup. My manager described me as the team's go-to person for automation.

03 / The AI work

Build on the foundation.

I built a Copilot Studio security-assistant pilot and contributed use cases and testing to AskInfoSec. I also created a hands-on workshop for colleagues. That work continues in P&G's innovation group.

02 / Experience

A record of turning risk work into forward motion.

My work has grown from security operations and governance into automation, vendor evaluation and enterprise AI.

The AI year

Building and testing AI tools.

I built a security-assistant pilot with policy and operational knowledge sources. I contributed use cases and testing to the broader team's AskInfoSec work, including feedback on data and integration constraints.

  • Built a Copilot Studio security-assistant pilot using 300+ policy and operational sources. Contributed use cases and testing to AskInfoSec.
  • Created and delivered “Build an AI Teammate in 30 Minutes,” a hands-on workshop using Copilot Studio and ChatPG.
  • Documented data and integration constraints during the assistant pilot.
The multiplier year · Promoted

Automating security work.

I used Python to reduce manual assessment preparation and give application owners targeted reports. The work also included access cleanup and a security recognition program.

  • Led the annual security assessment cycle. Automated preparation of 56 assessment workbooks to save an estimated 500 hours of manual work.
  • Led access cleanup across user accounts and permissions. Coordinated removal of approximately 9,000 obsolete access records.
  • Built Python automation to give application owners targeted vulnerability reports and track remediation. Adapted the reporting for Brinqa.
  • Launched a North America security awards and recognition program that increased remediation activity and later expanded globally.
Governance and compliance

Policy became operating context.

I joined the North America Market Operations security team, working with application owners and vendors to turn policy into practical requirements and close remediation items.

  • Completed 52 vendor security assessments, each within the 120-day service window.
  • Reviewed 12,000 non-employee accounts.
  • Conducted multiple internal audit reviews.
  • Built AI automation for owner-specific compliance follow-ups.
