With over two decades of international business experience, I am a 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗲𝗳 𝗔𝘂𝗱𝗶𝘁 𝗘𝘅𝗲𝗰𝘂𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲, 𝗕𝗼𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗕𝗼𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗿 with comprehensive ‘hands on’ 𝗚𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲, 𝗥𝗶𝘀𝗸, 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 (𝗚𝗥𝗖) and audit expertise, who advocates ethics, integrity and innovation. 

Recognised as a 𝗚𝗥𝗖 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿, 

I have delivered many speeches, lectures, videos and podcasts to global audiences on related topics, such as ‘Achieving Goals in Governance’, ‘Value Driven Auditing’ and ‘Using the Power of Scenario Simulation to Remodel Control Testing - A Game Changer’.   

In 2024, I was recognised as an Audit Beacon at The 𝟲𝘁𝗵 𝗔𝗻𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝘂𝗱𝗶𝘁 𝗕𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀, one of my proudest moments. 

As a multilingual communicator, fluent in three languages, I engage effectively with diverse stakeholders up to board level, steering and influencing strategic agendas relating to Environmental, Social and Governance (𝗘𝗦𝗚), Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (𝗗𝗘&𝗜), Artificial Intelligence (𝗔𝗜) governance, and cybersecurity. 

I served as 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻 of the Veblen Director Programme, enhancing the board dynamics and unlocking opportunities with global leaders. 

At 𝗚𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗲, a FTSE company, I developed audit innovation hubs spanning five continents comprising over 45 high-performing auditors, and advanced the company’s 𝗱𝗶𝗴𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆 with a new team of data scientists and rollout of digital tools and technologies. 

I was instrumental in supporting Glencore through a turbulent time caused by the commodities crisis, retaining $MM audit services for a carved-out agriculture business, and reducing working capital.    

Over the years, I have headed high-profile fraud investigations and mitigated risks, ensuring compliance during complex situations, and safeguarding positive outcomes. 

I created and maintained Glencore’s 𝗘𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗥𝗶𝘀𝗸 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 (ERM) framework, systems and standards, reporting upwards to the board. 

I inspire people and enrich companies of all sizes, from startups to multinationals, offering impact-orientated leadership and a forward-thinking approach.

As CEO, I’m building an AI platform that rethinks how organisations handle compliance. Instead of drowning in frameworks or burning cash on consultants, teams use pAIperTrail to:

• Build a live compliance profile in minutes
• Map controls across key frameworks automatically
• Capture evidence once and reuse it everywhere
• Run continuous gap analysis to show what’s done, what’s missing, and who owns the fix

Results speak for themselves. Teams cut compliance costs by up to 80%. Risk drops by 60%. Ownership spreads across finance, operations, and tech. No consultants. No retests. No overlap.

My focus is simple. Make compliance practical and affordable for SMEs and the mid-market. Turn deep expertise into accessible technology. Give business communities control over their governance, instead of dependence on outside advisors.

My aim is clear. pAIperTrail becomes the industry standard for consulting without the consultant. Decades of experience distilled into an intelligent, self-updating platform that keeps firms audit-ready at all times.

We help small and medium businesses reclaim time, money, and peace of mind, so they can focus on growth, not paperwork.

TRINITY SES

Most teams believe that the ESG framework and GRC reporting are a sunk cost.

We believe that real value is generated from business performance, monitoring, compliance and assurance and that GRC and ESG framework reporting should be a byproduct of those.

Allow me to introduce Trinity, an all-in-one solution that combines Enterprise Asset Management (EAM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), and Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) — explicitly engineered to help mid-sized companies thrive under growing ESG pressures.

Partner - NED - M&A

As business angel, I love providing expert advice and guidance in specific fields and industries. My main goal is to help organizations improve their performance, solve problems, or implement new strategies. It's such an exciting profession that requires strong analytical and communication skills, as well as a deep understanding of the subject matter. 

On the other hand, as a friendly investor, my primary focus is to allocate capital in order to generate returns and maximize wealth. I thoroughly analyze financial markets, evaluate investment opportunities, and make informed decisions based on research and analysis. I always keep an eye on risks and rewards, diversify portfolios, and monitor market trends to optimize investment strategies. Additionally, I stay constantly updated on economic and industry developments to identify potential opportunities and mitigate risks.
