Ask me anything

Have questions about cybersecurity, GRC, AI Governance, certifications, career transitions, or the UAE/GCC job market?

Book a 1:1 conversation and ask me anything.

With 17+ years of experience across Cybersecurity Governance, Risk & Compliance, AI Governance, and BISO/RISO leadership roles in global organizations including Citibank, State Street, ANZ and Macquarie, across India, Singapore, Australia and now the UAE, with experience as a two-time startup founder, I bring both enterprise and entrepreneurial perspectives to career and professional growth discussions.

7. Interview preparation and career positioning
8. LinkedIn and personal branding
9. Frameworks in practice across financial services, including regulatory overlays like APRA CPS 234, MAS TRM and UAE NESA/DESC
10. Consulting, freelancing and building your own GRC advisory practice
