What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply practical legal expertise and AI tools to research, teach, and build systematic due-diligence solutions in compliance and insurance, within collaborative, research-focused institutions.

I am an Assistant Professor of Law with over a decade of combined experience as a practicing advocate and legal academic, specializing in due diligence, legal compliance, banking and insurance law. I have written peer-reviewed articles, presented at international conferences, and developed systematic solutions for due diligence in life insurance disputes while supervising and teaching senior law students.

My practice background includes title investigation reports for banks, contract drafting consultancy, and civil litigation experience as a registered advocate. I leverage generative AI tools, scientometric analysis (R Studio), and accreditation expertise to enhance research, curriculum design, and institutional quality assurance.
