About
Strategic Finance Leader | International & Emerging Markets Expertise | Growth & Transformation Specialist
I’m an accomplished finance executive with a strong track record in leading high-performing teams across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. My leadership style thrives in diverse, multicultural settings, and I bring deep regional expertise—particularly in the Middle East—navigating complex regulatory environments, driving market entry strategies, and supporting high-growth initiatives in emerging markets.
My expertise spans financial reporting under IFRS and local GAAP, corporate transactions (including IPOs, M&A, and bond issuances), and strategic business controlling with industry leaders like Kone and Microsoft.
A former CFO Advisory Manager at KPMG and a PhD academic in agile business management, I blend deep technical knowledge with strategic insight. As a Boardman Alumni, I’m open to impactful BoD roles.
