What I'm looking for

I seek senior in-house or counsel roles where I can lead corporate governance, compliance, and cross-border transactional work, mentor teams, and drive pragmatic legal solutions.

I am a corporate and international attorney with extensive experience advising multinational groups, financial institutions, and subsidiaries on corporate governance, compliance, and cross-border transactional matters.

I provide strategic legal advice across areas such as data protection and privacy, AML/FCPA, regulatory compliance, contracts, restructuring, and litigation, and have led complex M&A, debt and winding-down processes.

I have managed governance for large corporate groups, coordinated with boards and local counsel across jurisdictions, and designed and delivered legal trainings to in-house and network teams to improve practices and consistency.

I bring academic depth from advanced legal degrees, admissions in multiple jurisdictions, multilingual capabilities, and a track record of supervising external counsel and implementing legal solutions that support business and financial objectives.
