ortfolio
With over 20 years of experience as Digital Leader and Management Consultant, I support organizations in navigating transformation, digitalization, cyber security and digital regulatory demands.
My work spans the strategic design and delivery of complex change and technology programs, translating technical and regulatory requirements into clear, actionable and reliable outcomes.
Beyond strategy, I enable the operational execution of cyber security, compliance and regulatory initiatives —including CRA, AI Act and Data Act — and provide strong delivery capabilities across program and project management, product and innovation management, as well as procurement and supply chain management.
Drawing on extensive international and cross-industry experience, I build solutions that are scalable, resilient and sustainably embedded within complex corporate environments.
My approach: strategy, implementation and change management from a single source — delivering tangible impact and a future-proof digital orientation.
