Seasoned cybersecurity leader with over 18 years of experience driving enterprise-scale Identity and Access Management (IAM/IGA), Zero Trust transformation, and governance automation across global organizations. Currently leading Identity at LinkedIn, where I define the vision and strategy for workforce and non-human identity - aligning security, compliance, and productivity through automation and resilient architecture. My expertise spans end-to-end identity lifecycle management, privileged access governance, and Just-in-Time (JIT) access enablement using PIM and PAM solutions to enforce least privilege across critical systems. I bring deep hands-on and strategic experience with platforms such as SailPoint, Okta, Azure Entra, and Active Directory, complemented by strong understanding of audit and compliance frameworks including SOX, ISO 27001, GDPR, NERC CIP, and PCI DSS. I’ve led multi-year modernization initiatives consolidating legacy directories and HR Systems, embedding security-by-design principles, and scaling identity controls across hybrid cloud environments. Recognized as a thought leader in identity innovation, I’ve represented organizational security programs at company-wide forums and industry conferences, sharing insights on secure-by-default architecture, passwordless adoption, and large-scale authentication modernization. I also serve in an advisory capacity, helping shape the evolution of modern identity solutions in collaboration with industry peers and partners. I’m passionate about building and mentoring high-performing global teams, managing multimillion-dollar IAM portfolios, and transforming identity into a strategic business enabler - delivering secure, seamless experiences that enhance user trust and organizational resilience.
