What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers opportunities for professional growth and challenges in international law and compliance.

As a corporate lawyer with extensive experience in international law and compliance, I have successfully supported AGM procedures and facilitated shareholder engagement for Nasdaq-listed entities. My role at GDEV Inc. involved collaborating with legal teams and corporate secretaries to streamline entity incorporation and maintain corporate documents across various jurisdictions.

Throughout my career, I have developed a strong foundation in contract management, drafting, and due diligence. My previous positions, including a LegalTech Lawyer and KYC Researcher, have honed my analytical skills and ability to create automated solutions for contract efficiency. I am passionate about leveraging my legal expertise to support businesses in navigating complex regulatory environments.
