My Journey

I’m an IT Auditor and Community Leader with over 13 years of experience in IT Service Management, including 5 years in IT auditing and mentoring. I currently serve as the Student & Volunteer Director at ISSA Chicago, where I lead student-focused initiatives, organize industry events, and guide aspiring professionals on their cybersecurity career paths. Over the past 4 years, I’ve led global projects, worked across continents, and actively volunteered with professional nonprofit organizations including WiCyS, ISACA, IIA, and Tamil community groups such as ARAM and TEAMS. These experiences have shaped me into a leader who values inclusion, collaboration, and purpose-driven growth.
