What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging role that focuses on regulatory affairs and compliance strategy, contributing to organizational success and ethical governance.

I am an experienced legal practitioner with over 7 years of expertise in public and private law, focusing on governance, compliance, and policy development. My proven track record includes creating and implementing legal frameworks that enhance operational efficiency, mitigate risks, and ensure adherence to regulatory standards. I am passionate about integrating legal practice with technology to drive innovation in compliance and governance solutions.

In my recent role as a Legal Compliance Officer at Donald Young Safaris Limited, I successfully implemented compliance strategies that reduced legal risks by 20% and improved operational adherence to international travel regulations. My experience also includes advising on governance structures and compliance strategies at Victor Otieno & Associates Advocates, where I contributed to stronger regulatory adherence and reduced client exposure to legal risks.
