What I'm looking for

I seek roles combining training, project and operations management in international, cross-cultural environments where I can lead teams, improve security/training standards, and support community-focused initiatives.

I am an experienced international security and project manager with a strong track record in training, auditing, and operations across Europe, North America and West Africa. I combine rigorous operational standards with cross-cultural sensitivity, having implemented TSA and corporate security procedures, led international projects with major partners, and achieved consistently positive audit results.

I bring broad NGO and academic experience in education, coaching and public engagement, plus proven skills in project and financial management, online marketing and multilingual communication. I am driven by inclusive, people-centered leadership, practical problem solving and a commitment to conservation and community volunteering.
