About

I am a qualified Attorney-at-Law with over 20 years of experience in law firms and in-house legal function. For the last 12 years I have been leading the in-house legal function for the country practice of EY, the Big 4 Audit & Consulting firm, as well as close cooperation with the regional and global EY structures. My experience includes full time cooperation with business owners and stakeholders, compliance function, finance and accounting functions, data privacy officer, IT team, etc. My professional goal is to be a Trusted Advisor and Effective Problem Solver for my Clients - either internal or external. My strong sides and professional qualities include: High risk awareness with attitude focused on finding solutions rather than just identifying problems; Effective team building and leadership based on mutual understanding and empathy rather than a traditional “demand” approach, resulting in trust and loyalty of the team members; Business-oriented approach to legal and regulatory challenges, developed through years of cooperating with multiple stakeholders in an international, multi-partner consulting firm; Experience and confidence while operating in a highly regulated business environment; Agile, dynamic decision-making skill, developed while advising consulting business who is always working on tight timelines and aware of time.
