Gulf Coast GRC Solutions
vCISO Advisory
Get executive-level security leadership without the full-time C-suite salary. I provide strategic roadmaps, lead Board meetings, and own your security posture so you can focus on growth. High-level guidance tailored for community banks and fintechs needing seasoned expertise.
Regulatory Exam Strategy & Coaching
Don’t let your next NCUA or OCC exam catch you off guard. I help identify gaps, refine documentation, and coach your team to present controls confidently. Walk into your next exam knowing you’ve already found the "red flags" before the regulators did.
ISP Architecture
More than just a policy manual—I build functional Information Security Programs aligned with GLBA and FFIEC standards. I architect the framework that keeps you compliant and secure, handling the structural heavy lifting so your team can focus on daily operations.
Board & Audit Committee Reporting
Translate complex cyber risks into clear business outcomes. I help you curate and present high-impact KRIs and risk metrics that resonate with Board members. Stop reading off spreadsheets and start telling a compelling story about your security program’s health.
Fintech "Bank-Ready" Advisory
For fintechs looking to partner with banks: I bridge the gap between your agile environment and rigid banking standards. I help you navigate the due diligence gauntlet so your security posture becomes an asset that closes deals, not a liability.
BaaS Compliance Oversight
Renting your charter shouldn't mean losing control. I design the oversight frameworks necessary to monitor your fintech partners effectively. Ensure your Banking-as-a-Service operations meet the latest interagency guidance and protect your bank from third-party fallout.
Incident Response Playbook Orchestration
In a crisis, "resetting passwords" isn't a plan. I architect comprehensive response playbooks that coordinate legal, PR, and technical stakeholders. Give your team a clear manual to follow so you can lead with confidence when every second counts.
TPRM Program Design
Stop reacting to individual SOC reports and start managing risk at scale. I build robust Third-Party Risk Management programs—from vetting standards to contract language—ensuring your vendor ecosystem remains a strategic strength rather than a hidden vulnerability.
AI Governance & Risk Assessments
Don’t let innovation become a legal liability. I implement governance frameworks like the NIST AI RMF to manage risks around bias and fraud. Ensure your AI initiatives comply with 2026 regulations while maintaining your competitive edge in the market.
