Looking for a Job
Tired of being underpaid / under appreciated. Plus the job market is starting to loosen, and companies have definitely started hiring again.

Location: New York, NY

Education: BS in Information Systems from a State University. Graduated in 2004 with a 3.9 GPA

Work Experience: Currently a Manager within the Big 4, doing IT advisory for the past 3 years. Previously was in industry for 2 years, doing a leadership development program with a large industrial conglomerate. Got my CISA, CISM, PMP, ITIL, and all the other requisite certs.

I'm looking for an IT Audit or Governance role in the financial services (banking, capital markets, insurance, etc) space.
