Strategic security leader with 8+ years directing risk, intelligence and crisis operations, specialising in corporate resilience, business continuity and global asset protection across complex environments.

I am committed to delivering tangible value through predictive methodologies, ensuring business continuity, and fostering a culture of proactive security across organisations.
My work is underpinned by a strong focus on governance, geoanalysis, and the effective use of advanced technologies to identify and address vulnerabilities before they escalate. Guided by curiosity and critical thinking, I take pride in adapting innovative solutions to complex business realities.
