I am an advocate of online privacy and I love the ever changing world of information security, where no day is like another.

I am very passionate about community life and environment we live in, about human rights and improving mental health through the sports. I always work at the top level, enjoy finding the most efficient way how to do things and this was proven by the success with every position I worked at - being head-hunted from the first position (T-Mobile) to start the department which ended up as huge success (Brightpoint) and then leaving for new position (Emerson) after short period I was offered to lead a department, that would be created for me due to the success of the methods I developed and the relationships I've built with the suppliers. "Free" time: I am a member of a running club, purple belt in Nearu (Martial Art), I do ballet, competitive cheerleading and I love swimming.

From national security to next-generation air defence, cybersecurity isn’t just my career — it’s my calling to protect, inspire, and transform. I am a Chartered Aerospace Engineer turned Cybersecurity Leader, with over a decade of navigating some of the UK’s most complex and high-stakes environments across Government, Intelligence, and Defence.

What drives me? Turning complexity into clarity, and challenges into change. I thrive on translating technical security into boardroom strategy, balancing governance and compliance with the reality of constrained budgets and relentless threats. My passion is bringing people on that journey — because people are at the heart of security, and it’s not just about technology, it’s about culture, trust, and leadership.

Beyond the day job, I’m a TEDx speaker, keynote presenter, and Advisory Board Member for Cyber London. I’ve shared stages at Infosecurity Europe, London Tech Week, International Cyber Expo, the Global Cyber Forum in Riyadh and CERC in Kuwait.

My speaking topics include: - Security Leadership in High-stakes Environments - Diversity as a Strategic Advantage - Women in Tech: From Awareness to Action - Skills Gap Myth: Lack of People or Lack of Perspective?

✨️I’m also relentless about changing the face of Cybersecurity. Through mentoring and advocacy, I champion women, mid-career professionals, and neurodiverse talent in tech. For me, inclusion isn’t a side project — it’s the foundation of stronger teams, smarter strategies, and more resilient security.

What I Bring

✨️The ability to lead cyber strategy under pressure — regulated, high-stakes, no margin for error.

✨️A voice that inspires change, whether in the boardroom or on stage.

✨️A passion for building diverse, future-ready teams that outperform and out-innovate.

At my core, I believe Cybersecurity isn’t just about defending systems — it’s about shaping the future. And I’m here to lead that charge.
