Lisa Cressey
A former PCI Sustainability Program professional for a Fortune 100 company whose consulting experience helps organizations implement practical, effective, and efficient PCI Sustainability Frameworks for achieving and maintaining continuous compliance.
Lisa’s experience working for a Fortune 100 company as a PCI Sustainability Program owner, quickly turned into a journey down a path to automating, monitoring and simplifying the end-to-end process of achieving PCI Compliance and delivering an annual Report on Compliance. Today, Lisa leverages her systems, security and audit experience to help build practical and repeatable compliance sustainability frameworks that transform how companies monitor and maintain compliance year-over-year.
A native of New Hampshire, Lisa made a move to Florida in 2014 so she could spend more time outside enjoying the sun, Gulf of Mexico, and cycling. Lisa has many hobbies, but if you get a chance, ask her how to build a Tiny Home.
