I’m an InfoSec professional with 8 years’ experience, specialising in Governance, Risk and Compliance, and I’ve worked across retail, manufacturing, and charities. I didn’t come from a technical background, and I see that as a strength. It’s given me a different perspective on security - one that focuses on people, context, and proportionality rather than technical perfection. I’m passionate about helping reshape InfoSec into something that supports organisations and individuals, rather than overwhelming them. Through Topmate, I mentor people who want support navigating GRC roles, building confidence, or approaching security in a more balanced and realistic way. I aim to offer honest advice, challenge assumptions, and help people find their own voice in InfoSec.
