A professional with 18 years of experience in Risk, Compliance, Internal Audit & Financial Crime within general insurance sector including 12 years specialising specifically in Financial Crime.

Formerly, I spent eight years at Aviva Insurance working across several disciplines within GRC, including serving as MLRO.

In 2022, I was honoured by the GRC World Forum as the ""Head of Financial Crime of the Year"" Award, recognising my impact in transforming financial crime risk management. I hold a Master's in Terrorism, International Crime and Global Security, awarded with Distinction, which grounds my work in a deep understanding of the geopolitical and criminal dynamics driving today's threats. As a thought leader, I share insight on topics such as AI-enabled financial crime, Emerging Fraud landscape, and RegTech innovation, always balancing strategy with operational clarity.
