Helping financial institutions & communities stay secure | CISO at PTMA Financial Solutions | CISSP, PMP, Scrum Master, ITIL

I’ve spent my career at the intersection of technology, business, and security leading teams, building programs, and protecting organizations against the threats that matter most.

🔹 At Ibotta, I helped scale IT and security during hypergrowth.
🔹 At Mercer Advisors, I rose to VP of Information Security directing a $6M tech spend, launching Security-as-a-Service, and boosting productivity by 15%.
🔹 At 360SOC, I led 30+ cybersecurity professionals, delivered 100% audit success across SOC 2/NIST/ISO/HITRUST, and built tools that generated $2M in annual revenue—while protecting clients from 100,000+ threats each year.

Today, I’m the CISO of PTMA Financial Solutions, serving 12,000+ local governments and 1,000+ financial institutions nationwide. My mission: safeguard client trust, strengthen community resilience, and make cybersecurity a business enabler.

Fashion Designer

Hello everyone, my name is Lisa, I was born in Shanghai, China. I have always liked a free life since I was a child, but because of my parents, I chose financial management in college because my father wanted me to help his business.

After graduation, I helped my father for a year, and I found that this was not what I wanted, so I started my design work in a local clothing company with my good friend, but a year later he went to Riverisland as a designer, and invited me a year later, until now.

For me, doing what I love, living without worries, being healthy, and my parents are safe and sound are the best things given by God
