GRC & Process Improvement Professional | Six Sigma Black Belt | Compliance & Risk Management Specialist

Professional Summary

Hi, I’m Guiselle Armstrong. I’m a Governance, Risk, and Compliance professional with over ten years of experience helping organizations manage risk, strengthen processes, and make compliance feel less intimidating and more practical. I’m a U.S. Air Force veteran, and early in my career I supported IRS data entry audits, where I developed a deep appreciation for accuracy, accountability, and doing things right the first time. I’m also a Six Sigma Black Belt, which shapes my data‑driven, continuous‑improvement approach to solving complex operational challenges.

Today, I work at the intersection of people, process, and technology, supporting audits, improving vulnerability management, and helping teams build sustainable, well‑governed programs that actually work in real‑world environments. I enjoy collaborating across departments, breaking down complex requirements into clear, actionable steps, and creating solutions that support both compliance and operational goals. I’m driven by integrity, continuous improvement, and a genuine desire to make work easier and more meaningful for the people behind the processes.

When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me giving back to my community, learning something new, or finding better ways to connect people, systems, and ideas!
