I graduated with degrees in Accounting from the University of Utah and the University of Connecticut, and I have been working in the world of audit, risk, and compliance since 2007.

My career has taken me to various parts of the world, leading or performing projects in a variety of industries. During this time, I’ve worked in consulting, audit, cybersecurity, compliance and risk management.  

Over the years, I’ve encountered numerous software solutions aimed at helping companies manage risk and compliance. However, many of these systems have left me frustrated. Here’s why: 

• High Cost Without Corresponding Value: I’ve experienced sales tactics that focus more on upselling additional modules rather than delivering genuine value for money. 
• Incomplete Solutions: I once joined a team that had purchased a module as part of a larger package, only to discover it hadn’t even been developed yet. 
• Siloed Systems: Most solutions either cater to a specific niche or have significant gaps in functionality, forcing us to purchase multiple systems from different vendors. 

In response to these experiences, I decided to create Opal, a tool that provides integrated solutions for audit, risk, and compliance teams. Here’s what sets Opal apart: 

• No Modular Pricing: We don’t charge by the module. Clients can access all the features, including future features, without incremental costs. 
• Scalable for All Sizes: Whether you’re a team of 50 or a team of 1, Opal offers flexibility and affordability. 
• Continuous Improvement: New modules are developed and released free of charge, ensuring Opal evolves with your needs. 
• Straightforward pricing: transparent pricing based only on core user count.   

If you’re tired of complicated, disconnected, and expensive GRC solutions, we would love to talk with you about how Opal can help improve your processes and profitability and provide measurable value.
