What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead or contribute to cybersecurity, IT GRC, AI governance, audit and analytics work where I can evaluate evidence, improve controls, build responsible AI-enabled assurance solutions and communicate clear recommendations to decision-makers.

At Hass Petroleum Group, I lead cybersecurity, IT GRC and internal audit assurance across 12 subsidiaries in nine African countries and the UAE. I built an AI-enabled assurance platform serving 1,500+ users, combining workflow automation, dashboards, anomaly detection, predictive scoring and Oracle EBS data.

I assess controls, evidence and technology environments spanning Oracle EBS, Microsoft 365, Active Directory, IAM, networks, databases and vendor platforms. My work has identified more than USD 69,000 in annual technology savings and a USD 48 million working-capital optimisation opportunity.

I've also led systems and data audits at Jubilee Insurance, built analytics solutions at Open Capital Advisors, and managed ERP implementation at Solarkiosk. I bring CISA and ISO/IEC 27001 and 42001 Lead Auditor credentials, peer-reviewed AI governance research, and a disciplined approach to separating fact from inference.
