"There is only one thing on Earth that lasts forever: knowledge."

I am a passionate Compliance Professional with many years of experience working for international companies in Europe and international organizations including the United Nations.  During my career, I led compliance projects in the field of compliance risk assessment, data analytics, ESG, international sanctions (UN, EU,OFAC) and compliance trainings. I implemented internal approval systems, third party management system and whistleblowing hotline.

 I am a speaker at several conferences in Europe and the United States such as BrightTALK, BACEE Conferences, Trade Compliance Techforum or Evintel. In addition, I also held guest lectures at University Heidelberg in Germany and Auckland University of Technology in New Zealand about business ethics and human rights protection. Upon request, I contributed to a research project at Harvard Business School with the focus of compliance risk assessment and predictive analysis.

In my free time, I am a novelist focusing on topics, which move the world forward such as technology or artificial intelligence, yet raise ethical questions. My debut detective fiction novel was selected as Distinguished Favorite by Independent Press Award in Category Thriller in 2026.
