Professional Background

For seven years, I served as Deputy General Counsel of a publicly listed global financial services company, with worldwide responsibility for litigation, arbitration, employment, intellectual property, and regulatory matters. I worked extensively with in-house and external counsel across multiple jurisdictions and legal systems, and led the legal work for a corporate acquisition and numerous complex commercial contracts.

Before going in-house, I practiced as a commercial litigator for three decades, handling complex commercial, financial, employment, regulatory, and intellectual property disputes, including matters involving sovereign parties.
