Helping digital businesses navigate privacy, regulatory compliance, information security and AI governance across international markets.

Legal expertise for regulated digital businesses.
I am a lawyer and privacy professional with 6+ years of experience advising businesses internationally on data protection, privacy and regulatory compliance.
My experience includes performing the Data Protection Officer (DPO) function and building comprehensive data privacy programmes—from governance frameworks, policies and risk assessments to operational processes, controls, training and ongoing compliance oversight.
I have particular experience working with businesses in gambling, betting and crypto, where privacy and regulatory requirements intersect with complex products, technology and rapidly evolving regulatory environments.
My approach combines legal analysis with practical implementation—helping businesses turn regulatory requirements into workable processes, controls and decisions.
