Hey I'm Lisa, a Certified Information Security Manager (CISM) through ISACA. I also serve as the Communications Director for the Calgary Chapter.

I'm passionate about security governance and currently sit on the board for CSA Z246.1, focusing on Security Management for Petroleum and Natural Gas Industry Systems.

In my role as a Management System and Strategy Specialist, I specialize in developing and auditing Security Programs. My approach uses Integrated Planning and Management Systems – this ensures that Security Programs not only effectively manage assets but also address threats, vulnerabilities, and risks. I take pride in helping clients create compliant systems that truly work for their organizations.

My educational background combines my passion for technology and security – I hold a master's in electrical engineering, where my thesis focused on self-driving vehicle security using Physical Security within the Wireless Communications domain.

I also have a bachelor's in Electrical Engineering and am a member of APEGA, the certifying board for engineers in Alberta.
