I was a belly dance instructor at a gym in Beijing when I was in college.

Experience

As the leader of the SOC and ISO 27001 services in the Rocky Mountain Region, I help clients with their cybersecurity compliance. This includes system and organization controls (SOC) examinations, ISO 27001 gap assessments and certification, Microsoft Data Protection Requirements (DRP) assessments, HIPPA assessments, Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX 404 internal and external IT audits), IT security assessments, IT risk assessments, IT audits, and privacy assessments.

My clients appreciate that I provide them with a personalized approach that supports their cybersecurity goals. This level of investment has earned me a reputation as a trusted business partner rather than simply an auditor, as I work with them to enhance their control environment.

Around the office, I’m known for being accessible. I genuinely enjoy coaching and training my staff and take pride in supporting their growth and development. I’m passionate about advocating for women in business, particularly working mothers, and strive to create an inclusive, supportive environment for all.

With more than a decade of experience, I belong to the AICPA, the ISACA, the Denver chapter of the Information Systems Security Association, and the Colorado Technology Association. I’m a board member of the Cloud Security Alliance’s Colorado chapter of LIFT, a nonprofit organization for women in cybersecurity.

I hold an M.S. in accounting from the University of Denver and a bachelor’s in computer science from the Beihang University.

Outside of the office, I spend my free time with my husband, our two boys, and our dog. We enjoy beach vacations, skiing, and hiking. I also enjoy cooking, baking sourdough bread, gardening, swimming, and reading.
