Introduction
Multilingual senior engineer and business transformation leader with 18+ years of international experience across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. I help organizations grow, transform, and navigate complex environments by combining strategy, technology, and regulatory expertise. I've worked across industries including IT, fintech, R&D, compliance (AML/KYC), energy, oil & gas, aerospace, and transport. I am passionate about innovation, with over 20 publications, a European award for my PhD work (Germany 2007) on modeling the corrosion of prestressed cables, and a patent. I bring a forward-thinking and analytical approach to every project.
