About Me
With over 20 years of experience in UK financial services, I operate at the intersection of regulatory rigour and commercial strategy. Having served as Chief Risk Officer (SMF4) across two building societies and a fintech, I specialise in transforming risk from a perceived "business blocker" into a strategic enabler.
