What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead legal research tasks and projects, as well as provide advice on public international law.

I am an experienced lawyer with a strong record leading anti-corruption, compliance, and transparency programs across public and civil society sectors. I have managed multi-stakeholder projects funded by USAID, INL, GIZ and others, supervised consultancy contracts exceeding US$100,000, and directed implementation of case-management systems that processed over 200 whistleblower reports.

I combine legal research, policy drafting, and program management to produce actionable remediation plans, deliver trainings and workshops, and represent organizations at international forums. I have published on strategic litigation, presented at global anti-corruption events, and hold advanced degrees including an LLM (University of Arizona) and a Master of Public Management.
