A Finance Professional
with a Technology Heart

My career began in internal audit and compliance, but I was never just about the numbers. I was always asking: why do we do this manually when technology could do it better? That question has shaped every role I have held.

Over 15+ years at the intersection of finance, strategy, and digital transformation, I have led ISO accreditations, deployed enterprise ERP systems, built executive BI dashboards, and formulated corporate digital roadmaps. Along the way, I have been teaching ACCA's most strategic paper to professionals who go on to achieve world rankings.

I hold the FCCA qualification, one of the most respected accounting credentials globally, and I am a Certified Soft Skills Trainer with deep hands-on experience in Power BI, Power Platform, MS Excel, and QMS. I am not a programmer, but I believe every business leader today must understand the language of technology.
